1. Let $ABC$ be an acute-angled triangle with $AB\neq AC$. The circle with diameter $BC$ intersects the sides $AB$ and $AC$ at $M$ and $N$ respectively. Denote by $O$ the midpoint of the side $BC$. The bisectors of the angles $\angle BAC$ and $\angle MON$ intersect at $R$. Prove that the circumcircles of the triangles $BMR$ and $CNR$ have a common point lying on the side $BC$.

In triangle $ABC$ with $AB=23$, $AC=27$, and $BC=20$, let $D$ be the foot of the $A$ altitude. Let $\mathcal{P}$ be the parabola with focus $A$ passing through $B$ and $C$, and denote by $T$ the intersection point of $AD$ with the directrix of $\mathcal P$. Determine the value of $DT^2-DA^2$. (Recall that a parabola $\mathcal P$ is the set of points which are equidistant from a point, called the $\textit{focus}$ of $\mathcal P$, and a line, called the $\textit{directrix}$ of $\mathcal P$.)

Let $n$ be a positive integer. Let $s: \mathbb N \to \{1, \ldots, n\}$ be a function such that $n$ divides $m-s(m)$ for all positive integers $m$. Let $a_0, a_1, a_2, \ldots$ be a sequence such that $a_0=0$ and \[a_{k}=a_{k-1}+s(k) \text{ for all }k\ge 1.\]
Find all $n$ for which this sequence contains all the residues modulo $(n+1)^2$.

Let $n \ge 3$ be an integer, and consider a $n \times n$-board, divided into $n^2$ unit squares. For all $m \ge 1$, arbitrarily many $1\times m$-rectangles (type I) and arbitrarily many $m\times 1$-rectangles (type II) are available. We cover the board with $N$ such rectangles, without overlaps, and such that every rectangle lies entirely inside the board. We require that the number of type I rectangles used is equal to the number of type II rectangles used.(Note that a $1 \times 1$-rectangle has both types.)
What is the minimal value of $N$ for which this is possible?

Let $m,n$ and $N$ be positive integers and $\mathbb{Z}_{N}=\{0,1,\dots,N-1\}$ a set of residues modulo $N$. Consider a table $m\times n$ such that each one of the $mn$ cells has an element of $\mathbb{Z}_{N}$. A [i]move[/i] is choose an element $g\in \mathbb{Z}_{N}$, a cell in the table and add $+g$ to the elements in the same row/column of the chosen cell(the sum is modulo $N$). Prove that if $N$ is coprime with $m-1,n-1,m+n-1$ then any initial arrangement of your elements in the table cells can become any other arrangement using an finite quantity of moves.

On a table there are 2004 boxes, and in each box a ball lies. I know that some the balls are white and that the number of white balls is even. In each case I may point to two arbitrary boxes and ask whether in the box contains at least a white ball lies. After which minimum number of questions I can indicate two boxes for sure, in which white balls lie?

Let $ABC$ be an acute triangle, where $AB$ is the smallest side and let $D$ be the midpoint of $AB$. Let $P$ be a point in the interior of the triangle $ABC$ such that $\angle CAP = \angle CBP = \angle ACB$. From the point $P$, we draw perpendicular lines on $BC$ and $AC$ where the intersection point with $BC$ is $M$, and with $AC$ is $N$ . Through the point $M$ we draw a line parallel to $AC$, and through $N$ parallel to $BC$. These lines intercept at the point $K$. Prove that $D$ is the center of the circumscribed circle for the triangle $MNK$.

We call an $m$-dimensional smooth manifold [i]parallelizable[/i] if it admits $m$ smooth tangent vector fields that are linearly independent at all points. Show that if $M$ is a closed orientable $2n$-dimensional smooth manifold of Euler characteristic $0$ that has an immersion into a parallelizable smooth $(2n+1)$-dimensional manifold $N$, then $M$ is itself parallelizable.

Consider a round table on which $2014$ people are seated. Suppose that the person at the head of the table receives a giant plate containing all the food for supper. He then serves himself and passes the plate either right or left with equal probability. Each person, upon receiving the plate, will serve himself if necessary and similarly pass the plate either left or right with equal probability. Compute the probability that you are served last if you are seated $2$ seats away from the person at the head of the table.

For any positive integer $m \geq 2$, let $p(m)$ be the smallest prime dividing $m$ and $P(m)$ be the largest prime dividing $m$. Let $C$ be a positive integer. Define sequences $\{a_n\}$ and $\{b_n\}$ by $a_0 = b_0 = C$ and, for each positive integer $k$ such that $a_{k-1}\geq 2$,
$$a_k=a_{k-1}-\frac{a_{k-1}}{p(a_{k-1})};$$
and, for each positive integer $k$ such that $b_{k-1}\geq 2$,
$$b_k=b_{k-1}-\frac{b_{k-1}}{P(b_{k-1})}$$
It is easy to see that both $\{a_n\}$ and $\{b_n\}$ are finite sequences which terminate when they reach the number $1$.
Prove that the numbers of terms in the two sequences are always equal.
