Let $n\geq3$ be a positive integer. Let $C_1,C_2,C_3,\ldots,C_n$ be unit circles in the plane, with centres $O_1,O_2,O_3,\ldots,O_n$ respectively. If no line meets more than two of the circles, prove that \[ \sum\limits^{}_{1\leq i<j\leq n}{1\over O_iO_j}\leq{(n-1)\pi\over 4}. \]

Let $M$ be the smallest positive multiple of $2012$ that has $2012$ divisors. Suppose $M$ can be written as $\Pi_{k=1}^{n}p_k^{a_k}$ where the $p_k$’s are distinct primes and the $a_k$’s are positive integers. Find $\Sigma_{k=1}^{n}(p_k + a_k)$
Let $ABC$ be an acute triangle with $BC = 4$ and $AC = 5$. Let $D$ be the midpoint of $BC$, $E$ be the foot of the altitude from $B$ to $AC$, and $F$ be the intersection of the angle bisector of $\angle BCA$ with segment $AB$. Given that $AD$, $BE$, and $CF$ meet at a single point $P$, compute the area of triangle $ABC$. Express your answer as a common fraction in simplest radical form.

Find the least positive integer $N$ which is both a multiple of 19 and whose digits add to 23.
In $\triangle ABC$, $\angle B=90^\circ$, segment $AB>BC$. Now we have a $\triangle A_iBC(i=1,2,...,n)$ which is similiar to $\triangle ABC$ (the vertexs of them might not correspond). Find the maximum value of $n+2018$.

Let $(a_n)_{n \ge 1}$ be a sequence of real numbers satisfying the properties: [list=1] [*] the sequence $x_n=\sum\limits_{k=1}^n a_k^2$ is convergent; [*] the sequence $y_n=\sum\limits_{k=1}^n a_k$ is unbounded. [/list] Prove that the sequence $(b_n)_{n \ge 1}$ given by $b_n=\{y_n\}$ is divergent. Note: $\{ x \}$ denotes the fractional part of $x.$
Let us call a triangle “almost right angle triangle” if one of its angles differs from $90^\circ$ by no more than $15^\circ$. Let us call a triangle “almost isosceles triangle” if two of its angles differs from each other by no more than $15^\circ$. Is it true that that any acute triangle is either “almost right angle triangle” or “almost isosceles triangle”? [i](2 points)[/i]

2008 boys and 2008 girls sit on 4016 chairs around a round table. Each boy brings a garland and each girl brings a chocolate. In an "activity", each person gives his/her goods to the nearest person on the left. After some activities, it turns out that all boys get chocolates and all girls get garlands. Find the number of possible arrangements.
Some $k{}$ vertices of a regular $n{}$-gon are colored red. We will call a coloring [i]uniform[/i] if for any $m$ the number of red vertices in any two sets of $m$ consecutive vertices of the $n{}$-gon coincide or differ by 1. Prove that a uniform coloring exists for any $k<n$ and is unique, up to rotations of the $n{}$-gon. [i]Proposed by M. Kontsevich[/i]

A $ 3 \times n$ grid is filled as follows. The first row consists of the numbers from $ 1$ to $ n$ arranged in ascending order. The second row is a cyclic shift of the top row: $ i,i\plus{}1,...,n,1,2,...,i\minus{}1$ for some $ i$. The third row has the numbers $ 1$ to $ n$ in some order so that in each of the $ n$ columns, the sum of the three numbers is the same. For which values of $ n$ is it possible to fill the grid in this way? For all such $ n$, determine the number of different ways of filling the grid.

Let $n$ be a positive integer. In a village, $n$ boys and $n$ girls are living. For the yearly ball, $n$ dancing couples need to be formed, each of which consists of one boy and one girl. Every girl submits a list, which consists of the name of the boy with whom she wants to dance the most, together with zero or more names of other boys with whom she wants to dance. It turns out that $n$ dancing couples can be formed in such a way that every girl is paired with a boy who is on her list. Show that it is possible to form $n$ dancing couples in such a way that every girl is paired with a boy who is on her list, and at least one girl is paired with the boy with whom she wants to dance the most.
