In the acute triangle $ ABC $, the point $ I $ is the center of the inscribed the circle, the point $ O $ is the center of the circumscribed circle and the point $ I_a $ is the center the excircle tangent to the side $ BC $ and the extensions of the sides $ AB $ and $ AC $. Point $ A'$ is symmetric to vertex $ A $ with respect to the line $ BC $. Prove that $ \angle IOI_a = \angle IA'I_a $.
[b]9.[/b] Show that to any elliptic paraboloid $\varphi_1$ there may be found an elliptic paraboloid $\varphi_2$ (other than $\varphi_1$) and an affinity $\phi$ which maps $\varphi_1$ onto $\varphi_2$ and has the following property: If $P$ is any point of $\varphi_1$ such that $\phi(P) \neq P$, then the straight line connecting $P$ and $\phi(P)$ is a common tangent of the two paraboloids.

Nina and Meir are walking on a $3$ km path towards grandma's house. They start walking at the same time from the same point. Meir's speed is $4$ km/h and Nina's speed is $3$ km/h. Along the path there are several benches. Whenever Nina or Meir reaches a bench, they sit on it for some time and eat a cookie. Nina always takes $t$ minutes to eat a cookie, and Meir always takes $2t$ minutes to eat a cookie, where $t$ is a positive integer. It turns out that Nina and Meir reached grandma's house at the same time. How many benches were there? Find all of the options.

Let $P(x,\ y)\ (x>0,\ y>0)$ be a point on the curve $C: x^2-y^2=1$. If $x=\frac{e^u+e^{-u}}{2}\ (u\geq 0)$, then find the area bounded by the line $OP$, the $x$ axis and the curve $C$ in terms of $u$.
Given a square cardboard of area $\frac{1}{4}$, and a paper triangle of area $\frac{1}{2}$ such that the square of its sidelength is a positive integer. Prove that the triangle can be folded in some ways such that the squace can be placed inside the folded figure so that both of its faces are completely covered with paper.

A triangle $\vartriangle ABC$ has $AC = 16$ and $BC = 12$. $E$ and $F$ are points on $AC$ and $BC$, respectively, so that $CE = 3CF$. Let $M$ be the midpoint of $AB$, and let lines $EF$ and $CM$ intersect at $G$. Compute the ratio $EG : GF$.
In a triangle $ABC$, point $P$ is the incenter and $A'$, $B'$, $C'$ its orthogonal projections on $BC$, $CA$, $AB$, respectively. Show that $\angle B'A'C'$ is acute.
Two points $K$ and $L$ are chosen inside triangle $ABC$ and a point $D$ is chosen on the side $AB$. Suppose that $B$, $K$, $L$, $C$ are concyclic, $\angle AKD = \angle BCK$ and $\angle ALD = \angle BCL$. Prove that $AK = AL$.
Every number in the sequence $1, 2, ... , 2021$ is either white or black. At one step Alice can choose three numbers of the sequence and change the color of each of them (white to black and black to white) if one of those three numbers is the arithmetic mean of the other two. Alice wants to perform several steps so that at the end all the numbers in the sequence are black. For which initial colorings of numbers can Alice achieve this?
Let $A, B, C$ be centers of three circles that are mutually tangent externally, let $r_A, r_B, r_C$ be the radii of the circles, respectively. Let $r$ be the radius of the incircle of $\vartriangle ABC$. Prove that $$r^2 \le \frac19 (r_A^2 + r_B^2+r_C^2)$$ and identify, with justification, one case where the equality is attained.

Let $\mathcal{P}$ be a parabola that passes through the points $(0, 0)$ and $(12, 5)$. Suppose that the directrix of $\mathcal{P}$ takes the form $y = b$. (Recall that a parabola is the set of points equidistant from a point called the focus and line called the directrix) Find the minimum possible value of $|b|$. [i]Proposed by Kevin You[/i]

There is a board with $n$ rows and $4$ columns, and white, yellow and light blue chips. Player $A$ places four tokens on the first row of the board and covers them so Player $B$ doesn't know them. How should player $B$ do to fill the minimum number of rows with chips that will ensure that in any of the rows he will have at least three hits? Clarification: A hit by player $B$ occurs when he places a token of the same color and in the same column as $A$.
For every positive real number $x$, let \[ g(x)=\lim_{r\to 0} ((x+1)^{r+1}-x^{r+1})^{\frac{1}{r}}. \] Find $\lim_{x\to \infty}\frac{g(x)}{x}$. [hide=Solution] By the Binomial Theorem one obtains\\ $\lim_{x \to \infty} \lim_{r \to 0} \left((1+r)+\frac{(1+r)r}{2}\cdot x^{-1}+\frac{(1+r)r(r-1)}{6} \cdot x^{-2}+\dots \right)^{\frac{1}{r}}$\\ $=\lim_{r \to 0}(1+r)^{\frac{1}{r}}=\boxed{e}$ [/hide]
