Let $ABC$ be an acute-angled scalene triangle with circumcircle $\Gamma$ and circumcenter $O$. Suppose $AB < AC$. Let $H$ be the orthocenter and $I$ be the incenter of triangle $ABC$. Let $F$ be the midpoint of the arc $BC$ of the circumcircle of triangle $BHC$, containing $H$. Let $X$ be a point on the arc $AB$ of $\Gamma$ not containing $C$, such that $\angle AXH = \angle AFH$. Let $K$ be the circumcenter of triangle $XIA$. Prove that the lines $AO$ and $KI$ meet on $\Gamma$. [i]Proposed by Anant Mudgal[/i]

Aaron takes a square sheet of paper, with one corner labeled $A$. Point $P$ is chosen at random inside of the square and Aaron folds the paper so that points $A$ and $P$ coincide. He cuts the sheet along the crease and discards the piece containing $A$. Let $p$ be the probability that the remaining piece is a pentagon. Find the integer nearest to $100p$.

In triangle $ABC$, let $\omega$ be the excircle opposite to $A$. Let $D, E$ and $F$ be the points where $\omega$ is tangent to $BC, CA$, and $AB$, respectively. The circle $AEF$ intersects line $BC$ at $P$ and $Q$. Let $M$ be the midpoint of $AD$. Prove that the circle $MPQ$ is tangent to $\omega$.
All three sides of an equilateral triangle are assumed to be reflective (except in the vertices), in such a way that they reflect the rays of light located in their plane, that fall on them and that come out of an interior point of the triangle. Determine the path of a ray of light that, starting from a vertex of the triangle reach another vertex of the same after reflecting successively on the three sides. Calculate the length of the path followed by the light assuming that the side of the triangle measures $1$ m.
Consider an equilateral triangle $\vartriangle ABC$ with side length $1$. Let $D$ and $E$ lie on segments $AB$ and $AC$ respectively such that $\angle ADE = 30^o$ and $DE$ is tangent to the incircle of $\vartriangle ABC$. Compute the perimeter of $\vartriangle ADE$.

Alphabet $A$ contains $n$ letters. $S$ is a set of words of finite length composed of letters of $A$. It is known that every infinite sequence of letters of $A$ begins with one and only one word of $S$. Prove that the set $S$ is finite. [i]Proposed by F. Bakharev[/i]

Nine people sit down for dinner where there are three choices of meals. Three people order the beef meal, three order the chicken meal, and three order the fish meal. The waiter serves the nine meals in random order. Find the number of ways in which the waiter could serve the meal types to the nine people such that exactly one person receives the type of meal ordered by that person.

In a group of $n$ people, each one knows exactly three others. They are seated around a table. We say that the seating is $perfect$ if everyone knows the two sitting by their sides. Show that, if there is a perfect seating $S$ for the group, then there is always another perfect seating which cannot be obtained from $S$ by rotation or reflection.
