Two satellites are launched at a distance $R$ from a planet of negligible radius. Both satellites are launched in the tangential direction. The first satellite launches correctly at a speed $v_\text{0}$ and enters a circular orbit. The second satellite, however, is launched at a speed $\frac{1}{2}v_\text{0}$. What is the minimum distance between the second satellite and the planet over the course of its orbit?
(a) $\frac{1}{\sqrt{2}}R$
(b) $\frac{1}{2}R$
(c) $\frac{1}{3}R$
(d) $\frac{1}{4}R$
(e) $\frac{1}{7}R$
A city has a system of bus routes laid out in such a way that
(a) there are exactly $11$ bus stops on each route;
(b) it is possible to travel between any two bus stops without changing routes;
(c) any two bus routes have exactly one bus stop in common.
What is the number of bus routes in the city?
Pages of some book are numerated with numbers $1$ to $100$. From the book several double pages were ripped out and sum of enumerations of that pages is equal to $4949$. How many double pages were ripped out?
A convex quadrilateral $ABCD$ is said to be [i]dividable[/i] if for every internal point $P$, the area of $\triangle PAB$ plus the area of $\triangle PCD$ is equal to the area of $\triangle PBC$ plus the area of $\triangle PDA$. Characterize all quadrilaterals which are dividable.

On a party, there are 6 boys and a number of girls. Two of the girls know exactly four boys each and the remaining girls know exactly two boys each. None of the boys know more than three girls. (We assume that if $ A$ knows $ B$, then $ B$ will also know $ A$). Then, the greatest possible number of girls on the party is
$ \text{(A)}\ 6 \qquad \text{(B)}\ 7 \qquad \text{(C)}\ 8 \qquad \text{(D)}\ 9 \qquad \text{(E)}\ \text{10 or more}$

Let $\alpha $ be an angle such that $\cos \alpha = \frac pq$, where $p$ and $q$ are two integers. Prove that the number $q^n \cos n \alpha$ is an integer.
A circle $k$ is drawn using a given disc (e.g. a coin). A point $A$ is chosen on $k$. Using just the given disc, determine the point $B$ on $k$ so that $AB$ is a diameter of $k$. (You are allowed to choose an arbitrary point in one of the drawn circles, and using the given disc it is possible to construct either of the two circles that passes through the points at a distance that is smaller than the radius of the circle.)
In $\triangle ABC$ $\angle B$ is obtuse and $AB \ne BC$. Let $O$ is the circumcenter and $\omega$ is the circumcircle of this triangle. $N$ is the midpoint of arc $ABC$. The circumcircle of $\triangle BON$ intersects $AC$ on points $X$ and $Y$. Let $BX \cap \omega = P \ne B$ and $BY \cap \omega = Q \ne B$. Prove that $P, Q$ and reflection of $N$ with respect to line $AC$ are collinear.

Let $ABC$ be an acute,non-isosceles triangle with $AB<AC<BC$.Let $D,E,Z$ be the midpoints of $BC,AC,AB$ respectively and segments $BK,CL$ are altitudes.In the extension of $DZ$ we take a point $M$ such that the parallel from $M$ to $KL$ crosses the extensions of $CA,BA,DE$ at $S,T,N$ respectively (we extend $CA$ to $A$-side and $BA$ to $A$-side and $DE$ to $E$-side).If the circumcirle $(c_{1})$ of $\triangle{MBD}$ crosses the line $DN$ at $R$ and the circumcirle $(c_{2})$ of $\triangle{NCD}$ crosses the line $DM$ at $P$ prove that $ST\parallel PR$.

Inside a convex $1000$-gon, $500$ points are selected so that no three of the $1500$ points — the ones selected and the vertices of the polygon — lie on the same straight line. This $1000$-gon is then divided into triangles so that all $1500$ points are vertices of the triangles, and so that these triangles have no other vertices.
How many triangles will there be?

A $2^{2014} + 1$ by $2^{2014} + 1$ grid has some black squares filled. The filled black squares form one or more snakes on the plane, each of whose heads splits at some points but never comes back together. In other words, for every positive integer $n$ greater than $2$, there do not exist pairwise distinct black squares $s_1$, $s_2$, \dots, $s_n$ such that $s_i$ and $s_{i+1}$ share an edge for $i=1,2, \dots, n$ (here $s_{n+1}=s_1$).
What is the maximum possible number of filled black squares?

$(NET 4)$ A boy has a set of trains and pieces of railroad track. Each piece is a quarter of circle, and by concatenating these pieces, the boy obtained a closed railway. The railway does not intersect itself. In passing through this railway, the train sometimes goes in the clockwise direction, and sometimes in the opposite direction. Prove that the train passes an even number of times through the pieces in the clockwise direction and an even number of times in the counterclockwise direction. Also, prove that the number of pieces is divisible by $4.$
