In Tlaxcala, there is a transportation system that works through buses that travel from one city to another in one direction . A set $S$ of cities is said [i]beautiful[/i] if it contains at least three different cities and from each city $A$ in $S$ at least two buses depart, each one goes directly to a different city in $S$ and none of them is $A$ (if there is a direct bus from $A$ to a city $B$ in $S$, there is not necessarily a direct bus from $B$ to $A$). Show that if there exists a beautiful set of cities $S$, then there exists a beautiful $T$ subset of $S$, such that for any two cities in $T$, you can get from one to another by taking buses that only pass through cities in $T$. Note: A bus goes directly from one city to another if it does not pass through any other city.

Let $q$ be a real number. Gugu has a napkin with ten distinct real numbers written on it, and he writes the following three lines of real numbers on the blackboard: [list] [*]In the first line, Gugu writes down every number of the form $a-b$, where $a$ and $b$ are two (not necessarily distinct) numbers on his napkin. [*]In the second line, Gugu writes down every number of the form $qab$, where $a$ and $b$ are two (not necessarily distinct) numbers from the first line. [*]In the third line, Gugu writes down every number of the form $a^2+b^2-c^2-d^2$, where $a, b, c, d$ are four (not necessarily distinct) numbers from the first line. [/list] Determine all values of $q$ such that, regardless of the numbers on Gugu's napkin, every number in the second line is also a number in the third line.

Fill each cell with an integer from $1$-$7$ so each number appears exactly once in each row and column. In each ``cage" of three cells, the three numbers must be valid lengths for the sides of a non-degenerate triangle. Additionally, if a cage has an ``A", the triangle must be acute, and if the cage has an ``R", the triangle must be right.

Let $P$ be a point in a square whose side are mirror. A ray of light comes from $P$ and with slope $\alpha$. We know that this ray of light never arrives to a vertex. We make an infinite sequence of $0,1$. After each contact of light ray with a horizontal side, we put $0$, and after each contact with a vertical side, we put $1$. For each $n\geq 1$, let $B_{n}$ be set of all blocks of length $n$, in this sequence. a) Prove that $B_{n}$ does not depend on location of $P$. b) Prove that if $\frac{\alpha}{\pi}$ is irrational, then $|B_{n}|=n+1$.

Let $M$ be a set of $n \ge 4$ points in the plane, no three of which are collinear. Initially these points are connected with $n$ segments so that each point in $M$ is the endpoint of exactly two segments. Then, at each step, one may choose two segments $AB$ and $CD$ sharing a common interior point and replace them by the segments $AC$ and $BD$ if none of them is present at this moment. Prove that it is impossible to perform $n^3 /4$ or more such moves. [i]Proposed by Vladislav Volkov, Russia[/i]
