There are $10$ horses, named Horse 1, Horse 2, $\ldots$, Horse 10. They get their names from how many minutes it takes them to run one lap around a circular race track: Horse $k$ runs one lap in exactly $k$ minutes. At time 0 all the horses are together at the starting point on the track. The horses start running in the same direction, and they keep running around the circular track at their constant speeds. The least time $S > 0$, in minutes, at which all $10$ horses will again simultaneously be at the starting point is $S = 2520$. Let $T>0$ be the least time, in minutes, such that at least $5$ of the horses are again at the starting point. What is the sum of the digits of $T$? $\textbf{(A)}\ 2\qquad\textbf{(B)}\ 3\qquad\textbf{(C)}\ 4\qquad\textbf{(D)}\ 5\qquad\textbf{(E)}\ 6$

In a school there are totally $n > 2$ classes and not all of them have the same numbers of students. It is given that each class has one head student. The students in each class wear hats of the same color and different classes have different hat colors. One day all the students of the school stand in a circle facing toward the center, in an arbitrary order, to play a game. Every minute, each student put his hat on the person standing next to him on the right. Show that at some moment, there are $2$ head students wearing hats of the same color.

Let $\vartriangle ABC$ be a right-angled triangle with $\angle A = 90^o$ and circumcircle $\Gamma$. The inscribed circle is tangent to $BC$ in point $D$.

Let $H$ be the orthocenter of a triangle $ABC$, and let $D$ be the midpoint of the segment $AH$. The altitude $BH$ of triangle $ABC$ intersects the perpendicular to the line $AB$ through the point $A$ at the point $M$. The altitude $CH$ of triangle $ABC$ intersects the perpendicular to the line $CA$ through the point $A$ at the point $N$. The perpendicular bisector of the segment $AB$ intersects the perpendicular to the line $BC$ through the point $B$ at the point $U$. The perpendicular bisector of the segment $CA$ intersects the perpendicular to the line $BC$ through the point $C$ at the point $V$. Finally, let $E$ be the midpoint of the side $BC$ of triangle $ABC$. Prove that the points $D$, $M$, $N$, $U$, $V$ all lie on one and the same perpendicular to the line $AE$. [i]Extensions.[/i] In other words, we have to show that the points $M$, $N$, $U$, $V$ lie on the perpendicular to the line $AE$ through the point $D$. Additionally, one can find two more points on this perpendicular: [b](a)[/b] The nine-point circle of triangle $ABC$ is known to pass through the midpoint $E$ of its side $BC$. Let $D^{\prime}$ be the point where this nine-point circle intersects the line $AE$ apart from $E$. Then, the point $D^{\prime}$ lies on the perpendicular to the line $AE$ through the point $D$. [b](b)[/b] Let the tangent to the circumcircle of triangle $ABC$ at the point $A$ intersect the line $BC$ at a point $X$. Then, the point $X$ lies on the perpendicular to the line $AE$ through the point $D$. [i]Comment.[/i] The actual problem was created by Victor Thébault around 1950 (cf. Hyacinthos messages #1102 and #1551). The extension [b](a)[/b] initially was a (pretty trivial) lemma in Thébault's solution of the problem. Extension [b](b)[/b] is rather new; in the form "prove that $X\in UV$", it was [url=http://www.mathlinks.ro/Forum/viewtopic.php?t=3659]proposed by Valentin Vornicu for the Balkan MO 2003[/url], however it circulated in the Hyacinthos newsgroup before (Hyacinthos messages #7240 and #7242), where different solutions of the problem were discussed as well. Hereby, "Hyacinthos" always refers to the triangle geometry newsgroup "Hyacinthos", which can be found at http://groups.yahoo.com/group/Hyacinthos . I proposed the problem for the QEDMO math fight wishing to draw some attention to it. It has a rather short and elementary solution, by the way (without using radical axes or inversion like the standard solutions). Darij
