Each edge of a complete graph with $101$ vertices is marked with $1$ or $-1$. It is known that absolute value of the sum of numbers on all the edges is less than $150$. Prove that the graph contains a path visiting each vertex exactly once such that the sum of numbers on all edges of this path is zero.

The $49$ numbers $2,3,4,...,49,50$ are written on the blackboard . An allowed operation consists of choosing two different numbers $a$ and $b$ of the blackboard such that $a$ is a multiple of $b$ and delete exactly one of the two. María performs a sequence of permitted operations until she observes that it is no longer possible to perform any more. Determine the minimum number of numbers that can remain on the board at that moment.
Let $ABCD$ be a parallelogram and $P$ a point in the plane. The line $BP$ intersects the circumcircle of $ABC$ again at $X$ and the line $DP$ intersects the circumcircle of $DAC$ again at $Y$. Let $M$ be the midpoint of the side $AC$. The point $N$ lies on the circumcircle of $PXY$ so that $MN$ is a tangent to this circle. Prove that the segments $MN$ and $AM$ have the same length.

Prove that a plane that passes:
a) through the centers of two opposite edges of the tetrahedron and
b) through the center of one of the other edges of the tetrahedron
divides the tetrahedron into two parts of equal volumes.
Will the thesis remain true if we reject assumption (b) ?
In a non-equilateral triangle $ABC$ point $I$ is the incenter and point $O$ is the circumcenter. A line $s$ through $I$ is perpendicular to $IO$. Line $\ell$ symmetric to like $BC$ with respect to $s$ meets the segments $AB$ and $AC$ at points $K$ and $L$, respectively ($K$ and $L$ are different from $A$). Prove that the circumcenter of triangle $AKL$ lies on the line $IO$.

Points $M$, $N$, $K$ lie on the sides $BC$, $CA$, $AB$ of a triangle $ABC$, respectively, and are different from its vertices. The triangle $MNK$ is called[i] beautiful[/i] if $\angle BAC=\angle KMN$ and $\angle ABC=\angle KNM$. If in the triangle $ABC$ there are two beautiful triangles with a common vertex, prove that the triangle $ABC$ is right-angled.

A pentagon has vertices labelled $A, B, C, D, E$ in that order counterclockwise, such that $AB$, $ED$ are parallel and $\angle EAB = \angle ABD = \angle ACD = \angle CDA$.

At a party, $2019$ people decide to form teams of three. To do so, each turn, every person not on a team points to one other person at random. If three people point to each other (that is, $A$ points to $B$, $B$ points to $C$, and $C$ points to $A$), then they form a team. What is the probability that after $65, 536$ turns, exactly one person is not on a team

The teacher wrote a non-zero natural number on the board. The teacher explained students that they can delete the number written on the board and can write a number instead naturally new, whenever they want, applying one of the following each time rules:
1) Instead of the current number $n$ write $3n + 13$
2) Instead of the current number $n$ write the number $\sqrt{n}$, if $n$ is a perfect square .
