Let $C_1(O_1)$ and $ C_2(O_2)$ be two circles such that $C_1$ passes through $O_2$. Point $M$ lies on $C_1$ such that $M \notin O_1O_2$. The tangents from $M$ at $O_2$ meet again $C_1$ at $A$ and $B$. Prove that the tangents from $A$ and $B$ at $C_2$ - others than $MA$ and $MB$ - meet at a point located on $C_1$.

The diagram below shows nine points on a circle where $AB=BC=CD=DE=EF=FG=GH$. Given that $\angle GHJ=117^\circ$ and $\overline{BH}$ is perpendicular to $\overline{EJ}$, there are relatively prime positive integers $m$ and $n$ so that the degree measure of $\angle AJB$ is $\textstyle\frac mn$. Find $m+n$.

The positive integers $1,2,...,121$ are arranged in the squares of a $11 \times 11$ table. Dima found the product of numbers in each row and Sasha found the product of the numbers in each column. Could they get the same set of $11$ numbers?

Dragon selects three positive real numbers with sum $100$, uniformly at random. He asks Cat to copy them down, but Cat gets lazy and rounds them all to the nearest tenth during transcription. If the probability the three new numbers still sum to $100$ is $\tfrac{m}{n}$, where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers, compute $100m+n$.

Alzim and Badril are playing a game on a hexagonal lattice grid with 37 points (4 points a side), all of them uncolored. On his turn, Alzim colors one uncolored point with the color red, and Badril colors [b]two[/b] uncolored points with the color blue. The game ends either when there is an equilateral triangle whose vertices are all red, or all points are colored. If the former happens, then Alzim wins, otherwise Badril wins. If Alzim starts the game, does Alzim have a strategy to guarantee victory?

[b]Randy:[/b] "Hi Rachel, that's an interesting quadratic equation you have written down. What are its roots?''
[b]Rachel:[/b] "The roots are two positive integers. One of the roots is my age, and the other root is the age of my younger brother, Jimmy.''
[b]Randy:[/b] "That is very neat! Let me see if I can figure out how old you and Jimmy are. That shouldn't be too difficult since all of your coefficients are integers. By the way, I notice that the sum of the three coefficients is a prime number.''
[b]Rachel:[/b] "Interesting. Now figure out how old I am.''
[b]Randy:[/b] "Instead, I will guess your age and substitute it for $x$ in your quadratic equation $\dots$ darn, that gives me $-55$, and not $0$.''
[b]Rachel:[/b] "Oh, leave me alone!''
(1) Prove that Jimmy is two years old.
(2) Determine Rachel's age.

A unit circle is centered at $(0, 0)$ on the $(x, y)$ plane. A regular hexagon passing through $(1, 0)$ is inscribed in the circle. Two points are randomly selected from the interior of the circle and horizontal lines are drawn through them, dividing the hexagon into at most three pieces. The probability that each piece contains exactly two of the hexagon's original vertices can be written as
\[ \frac{2\left(\frac{m\pi}{n}+\frac{\sqrt{p}}{q}\right)^2}{\pi^2} \]
for positive integers $m$, $n$, $p$, and $q$ such that $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime and $p$ is squarefree. Find $m+n+p+q$.

Let $n$ be a positive with $n\geq 3$. Consider a board of $n \times n$ boxes. In each step taken the colors of the $5$ boxes that make up the figure bellow change color (black boxes change to white and white boxes change to black)
The figure can be rotated $90°, 180°$ or $270°$.
Firstly, all the boxes are white.Determine for what values of $n$ it can be achieved, through a series of steps, that all the squares on the board are black.

There are $n\ge 2$ line segments in the plane such that every two segments cross and no three segments meet at a point. Geoff has to choose an endpoint of each segment and place a frog on it facing the other endpoint. Then he will clap his hands $n-1$ times. Every time he claps,each frog will immediately jump forward to the next intersection point on its segment. Frogs never change the direction of their jumps. Geoff wishes to place the frogs in such a way that no two of them will ever occupy the same intersection point at the same time.
(a) Prove that Geoff can always fulfill his wish if $n$ is odd.
(b) Prove that Geoff can never fulfill his wish if $n$ is even.

Your math teacher asks you to rationalize the denominator of the expression $\frac{a}{b + \sqrt{c}}$, where $a$, $b$, and $c$ are integers and $c$ is not divisible by the square of any prime. You find that $\frac{a}{b + \sqrt{c}}$ is equal to $\frac{30 - 5\sqrt{14}}{11}$. Compute the triple $(a,b,c)$.

Let $A$ be a finite set of pairs of real numbers such that for any pairs $(a,b)$ in $A$ we have $a>0$. Let $X_0=(x_0, y_0)$ be a pair of real numbers(not necessarily from $A$). We define $X_{j+1}=(x_{j+1}, y_{j+1})$ for all $j\ge 0$ as follows: for all $(a,b)\in A$, if $ax_j+by_j>0$ we let $X_{j+1}=X_j$; otherwise we choose a pair $(a,b)$ in $A$ for which $ax_j+by_j\le 0$ and set $X_{j+1}=(x_j+a, y_j+b)$. Show that there exists an integer $N\ge 0$ such that $X_{N+1}=X_N$.
