Equilateral triangle $T_0$ with side length $3$ is on a plane. Given triangle $T_n$ on the plane, triangle $T_{n+1}$ is constructed on the plane by translating $T_n$ by $1$ unit, in one of six directions parallel to one of the sides of $T_n$. The direction is chosen uniformly at random.
Let $a$ be the least integer such that at most one point on the plane is in or on all of $T_0, T_1, T_2, \ldots, T_a$. It can be shown that $a$ exists with probability $1$. Find the probability that $a$ is even.

Let $P$ be the set of all primes, and let $M$ be a non-empty subset of $P$. Suppose that for any non-empty subset ${p_1,p_2,...,p_k}$ of $M$, all prime factors of $p_1p_2...p_k+1$ are also in $M$. Prove that $M=P$.

How many quadratic polynomials with real coefficients are there such that the set of roots equals the set of coefficients? (For clarification: If the polynomial is $ax^2+bx+c,a\neq 0,$ and the roots are $r$ and $s,$ then the requirement is that $\{a,b,c\}=\{r,s\}$.)

$A, B, C$ are the angles of a triangle. Show that $2\frac{\sin A}{A} + 2\frac{\sin B}{B} + 2\frac{\sin C}{C} \le \left(\frac{1}{B} + \frac{1}{C}\right) \sin A + \left(\frac{1}{C} + \frac{1}{A}\right) \sin B + \left(\frac{1}{A} + \frac{1}{B}\right) \sin C$
Luis' friends played a prank on him in his geometry homework. They erased the entire triangle but left traces equivalent to two sides measuring $a$ and $b$, with $b > a$, and the height $h$ falling on the side measuring $b$, with $h < a$. Help Luis reconstruct the original triangle using only a straightedge and compass. Since Luis' method does not involve measurements, prove that his method results in a triangle longer than its given sides and height.
Find all solutions in integers of $x^{3}+2y^{3}=4z^{3}$.
In how many ways can you write $12$ as an ordered sum of integers where the smallest of those integers is equal to $2$? For example, $2+10$, $10+2$, and $3+2+2+5$ are three such ways.
A collection of regular polygons with sides of equal length is said to "fit" if, when arranged around a common vertex, they exactly complete the surrounding area of the point on the plane. For example, a square fits with two octagons. Determine all possible collections of regular polygons that fit.
The apothem of a square having its area numerically equal to its perimeter is compared with the apothem of an equilateral triangle having its area numerically equal to its perimeter. The first apothem will be:
$ \textbf{(A)}\ \text{equal to the second} \qquad\textbf{(B)}\ \frac {4}{3} \text{ times the second} \qquad\textbf{(C)}\ \frac {2}{\sqrt {3}} \text{ times the second} \\
\textbf{(D)}\ \frac {\sqrt {2}}{\sqrt {3}} \text{ times the second} \qquad\textbf{(E)}\ \text{indeterminately related to the second}$

Consider a set $S$ of $200$ points on the plane such that $100$ points are the vertices of a convex polygon $A$ and the other $100$ points are in the interior of the polygon. Moreover, no three of the given points are collinear. A triangulation is a way to partition the interior of the polygon $A$ into triangles by drawing the edges between some two points of S such that any two edges do not intersect in the interior, and each point in $S$ is the vertex of at least one triangle.
1. Prove that the number of edges does not depend on the triangulation.
2. Show that for any triangulation, one can color each triangle by one of three given colors such that any two adjacent triangles have different colors.
