A line initially $ 1$ inch long grows according to the following law, where the first term is the initial length. \[ 1 \plus{} \frac {1}{4}\sqrt {2} \plus{} \frac {1}{4} \plus{} \frac {1}{16}\sqrt {2} \plus{} \frac {1}{16} \plus{} \frac {1}{64}\sqrt {2} \plus{} \frac {1}{64} \plus{} \cdots. \]If the growth process continues forever, the limit of the length of the line is: $ \textbf{(A)}\ \infty \qquad\textbf{(B)}\ \frac {4}{3} \qquad\textbf{(C)}\ \frac {8}{3} \qquad\textbf{(D)}\ \frac {1}{3}(4 \plus{} \sqrt {2}) \qquad\textbf{(E)}\ \frac {2}{3}(4 \plus{} \sqrt {2})$

In the plane, three distinct non-collinear points $A,B,C$ are marked. In each step, Ege can do one of the following: [list] [*] For marked points $X,Y$, mark the reflection of $X$ across $Y$. [*]For distinct marked points $X,Y,Z,T$ which do not form a parallelogram, mark the center of spiral similarity which takes segment $XY$ to $ZT$. [*] For distinct marked points $X,Y,Z,T$, mark the intersection of lines $XY$ and $ZT$. [/list] No matter how the points $A,B,C$ are marked in the beginning, can Ege always mark, after finitely many moves, a) The circumcenter of $\triangle ABC$. b) The incenter of $\triangle ABC$.

[b]p1.[/b] $\vartriangle DEF$ is constructed from equilateral $\vartriangle ABC$ by choosing $D$ on $AB$, $E$ on $BC$ and $F$ on $CA$ so that $\frac{DB}{AB}=\frac{EC}{BC}=\frac{FA}{CA}=a$, where $a$ is a number between $0$ and $1/2$. (a) Show that $\vartriangle DEF$ is also equilateral. (b) Determine the value of $a$ that makes the area of $\vartriangle DEF$ equal to one half the area of $\vartriangle ABC$. [b]p2.[/b] A bowl contains some red balls and some white balls. The following operation is repeated until only one ball remains in the bowl: Two balls are drawn at random from the bowl. If they have different colors, then the red one is discarded and the white one is returned to the bowl. If they have the same color, then both are discarded and a red ball (from an outside supply of red balls) is added to the bowl. (Note that this operation—in either case—reduces the number of balls in the bowl by one.) (a) Show that if the bowl originally contained exactly $1$ red ball and $ 2$ white balls, then the color of the ball remaining at the end (i.e., after two applications of the operation) does not depend on chance, and determine the color of this remaining ball. (b) Suppose the bowl originally contained exactly $1986$ red balls and $1986$ white balls. Show again that the color of the ball remaining at the end does not depend on chance and determine its color. [b]p3.[/b] Let $a, b$, and $c$ be three consecutive positive integers, with $a < b < c.$ (a) Show that $ab$ cannot be the square of an integer. (b) Show that $ac$ cannot be the square of an integer. (c) Show that $abc$ cannot be the square of an integer. [b]p4.[/b] Consider the system of equations $$\sqrt{x}+\sqrt{y}=2$$ $$ x^2+y^2=5$$ (a) Show (algebraically or graphically) that there are two or more solutions in real numbers $x$ and $y$. (b) The graphs of the two given equations intersect in exactly two points. Find the equation of the straight line passing through these two points of intersection. [b]p5.[/b] Let $n$ and $m$ be positive integers. An $n \times m $ rectangle is tiled with unit squares. Let $r(n, m)$ denote the number of rectangles formed by the edges of these unit squares. Thus, for example, $r(2, 1) = 3$. (a) Find $r(2, 3)$. (b) Find $r(n, 1)$. (c) Find, with justification, a formula for $r(n, m)$. PS. You should use hide for answers.
