Suppose two regular pyramids with the same base $ABC$: $P-ABC$ and $Q-ABC$ are circumscribed by the same sphere. If the angle formed by one of the lateral face and the base of pyramid $P-ABC$ is $\frac{\pi}{4}$, find the tangent value of the angle formed by one of the lateral face and the base of the pyramid $Q-ABC$.
There are $1001$ points in the plane such that no three are collinear. The points are joined by $1001$ line segments such that each point is an endpoint of exactly two of the line segments. Prove that there does not exist a straight line in the plane that intersects each of the $1001$ segments in an interior point. [i]An interior point of a line segment is a point of the line segment that is not one of the two endpoints.[/i]
Determine the greatest common divisor of the numbers: $$5^5-5, 7^7-7, 9^9-9 ,..., 2017^{2017}-2017,$$

Let $ABC$ be a triangle with $AB = 3$, $BC = 5$, $AC = 7$, and let $ P$ be a point in its interior. If $G_A$, $G_B$, $G_C$ are the centroids of $\vartriangle PBC$, $\vartriangle PAC$, $\vartriangle PAB$, respectively, find the maximum possible area of $\vartriangle G_AG_BG_C$.
Members of the State Duma formed factions in such a way that for any two fractions $A $ and $B$ (not necessarily different), $\overline{A \cup B}$ is also faction ($\overline{C}$ denotes the set of all members of the Duma, not including in $C$). Prove that for any two factions $A$ and $B$, $A \cup B$ is also a faction.
Let $a$, $b$, $c$ be positive integers such that $abc + bc + c = 2014$. Find the minimum possible value of $a + b + c$.
During a break, $n$ children at school sit in a circle around their teacher to play a game. The teacher walks clockwise close to the children and hands out candies to some of them according to the following rule: He selects one child and gives him a candy, then he skips the next child and gives a candy to the next one, then he skips 2 and gives a candy to the next one, then he skips 3, and so on. Determine the values of $n$ for which eventually, perhaps after many rounds, all children will have at least one candy each.
Let $k,n>1$ be integers such that the number $p=2k-1$ is prime. Prove that, if the number $\binom{n}{2}-\binom{k}{2}$ is divisible by $p$, then it is divisible by $p^2$.

A triangle is constructed with the lengths of the sides chosen from the set $\{2, 3, 5, 8, 13, 21, 34, 55, 89, 144\}$. Show that this triangle must be isosceles. (A triangle is isosceles if it has at least two sides the same length.)
