A convex quadrilateral $ABCD$ has $\angle BAC = \angle ADC$. Let $M{}$ be the midpoint of the diagonal $AC$. The side $AD$ contains a point $E$ such that $ABME$ is a parallelogram. Let $N{}$ be the midpoint of the line segment $AE{}$. Prove that the line $AC$ touches the circumcircle of the triangle $DMN$ at point $M{}$.
We say that a set of positive integers is [i]regular [/i] if, for any selection of numbers from the set, the sum of the chosen numbers is different from $1810$. Divide the set of integers from $452$ to $1809$ (inclusive) into the smallest possible number of regular sets.
A game is played on an ${n \times n}$ chessboard. At the beginning there are ${99}$ stones on each square. Two players ${A}$ and ${B}$ take turns, where in each turn the player chooses either a row or a column and removes one stone from each square in the chosen row or column. They are only allowed to choose a row or a column, if it has least one stone on each square. The first player who cannot move, looses the game. Player ${A}$ takes the first turn. Determine all n for which player ${A}$ has a winning strategy.

Let $ABC$ be a triangle with incenter and $A$-excenter $I, I_a$, whose incircle touches $BC, CA, AB$ at $D, E, F$. The line $EF$ meets $BC$ at $P$ and $X$ is the midpoint of $PD$. Show that $XI \perp DI_a$.
Proof that if $4$ numbers (not necessarily distinct) are picked from $\{1, 2, \cdots, 20\}$, one can pick $3$ numbers among them and can label these $3$ as $a, b, c$ such that $ax \equiv b \;(\bmod\; c)$ has integral solutions.
Let $ABC$ be an equilateral triangle. Let $P$ be a point on the side $AC$ and $Q$ be a point on the side $AB$ so that both triangles $ABP$ and $ACQ$ are acute. Let $R$ be the orthocentre of triangle $ABP$ and $S$ be the orthocentre of triangle $ACQ$. Let $T$ be the point common to the segments $BP$ and $CQ$. Find all possible values of $\angle CBP$ and $\angle BCQ$ such that the triangle $TRS$ is equilateral.
Let f be a ternary operation on a set of at least four elements for which
(1) $f ( x , x , y ) \equiv f ( x , y , x ) \equiv f( x , y , y ) \equiv x$

for pairwise distinct x,y,z.
Prove that f is a nontrivial composition of g such that g is not a composition of f.

how many lines can be draws so that the line halves both area and circumference?
Let $b$ be a positive integer. Grogg writes down a sequence whose first term is $1$. Each term after that is the total number of digits in all the previous terms of the sequence when written in base $b$. For example, if $b = 3$, the sequence starts $1, 1, 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 12, \dots$. If $b = 2521$, what is the first positive power of $b$ that does not appear in the sequence?
Let $p$ be a prime number and $n \ge 2$ a positive integer, such that $p | (n^6 -1)$. Prove that $n > \sqrt{p}-1$.
Let $ABCD$ be a circumscribed quadrilateral. Let $g$ be a line through $A$ which meets the segment $BC$ in $M$ and the line $CD$ in $N$. Denote by $I_1$, $I_2$ and $I_3$ the incenters of $\triangle ABM$, $\triangle MNC$ and $\triangle NDA$, respectively. Prove that the orthocenter of $\triangle I_1I_2I_3$ lies on $g$.
