Other problems

Problem 1

Determine all positive integers kk and nn satisfying the equation k2−2016=3nk^2 - 2016 = 3^n (Stephan Wagner)

Problem 2

Let aa , bb , cc and dd be real numbers with a2+b2+c2+d2=4a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + d^2 = 4 . Prove that the inequality (a+2)(b+2)≥cd(a+2)(b+2) \ge cd holds and give four numbers aa , bb , cc and dd such that equality holds.

Problem 3

On the occasion of the 47th Mathematical Olympiad 2016 the numbers 47 and 2016 are written on the blackboard. Alice and Bob play the following game: Alice begins and in turns they choose two numbers aa and bb with a>ba > b written on the blackboard, whose difference a−ba-b is not yet written on the blackboard and write this difference additionally on the board. The game ends when no further move is possible. The winner is the player who made the last move.

Prove that Bob wins, no matter how they play.

Problem 4

Let ABCABC be a triangle with AC>ABAC > AB and circumcenter OO . The tangents to the circumcircle at AA and BB intersect at TT . The perpendicular bisector of the side BCBC intersects side ACAC at SS .

(a) Prove that the points AA , BB , OO , SS , and TT lie on a common circle. (b) Prove that the line STST is parallel to the side BCBC .
