Problem 1

A non-right triangle A1A2A3A_1A_2A_3 is given. Circles C1C_1 and C2C_2 are tangent at A3,C2A_3, C_2 and C3C_3 are tangent at A1A_1 , and C3C_3 and C1C_1 are tangent at A2A_2 . Points O1,O2,O3O_1,O_2,O_3 are the centers of C1,C2,C3C_1, C_2, C_3 , respectively. Supposing that the triangles A1A2A3A_1A_2A_3 and O1O2O3O_1O_2O_3 are similar, determine their angles.

Problem 2

The monic polynomial P(x)=xn+an−1xn−1+...+a0P(x) = x^n + a_{n-1}x^{n-1} +...+ a_0 of degree n>1n > 1 has nn distinct negative roots. Prove that a1P(1)>2n2aoa_1P(1) > 2n^2a_o

Problem 3

Each point in space is colored either blue or red. Show that there exists a unit square having exactly 0,10, 1 or 44 blue vertices.

Problem 4

Find all triples (m,n,N) of positive integers numbers m,n and N such that mN−nN=2100m^N-n^N=2^{100} with N>1

Problem 5

Problem 6

Let MM be the set of all tetrahedra whose inscribed and circumscribed spheres are concentric. If the radii of these spheres are denoted by rr and RR respectively, find the possible values of R/rR/r over all tetrahedra from MM .

Problem 7

Let kk and nn be integers with 0<k<n2/40 < k < n^2/4 such that k has no prime divisor greater than nn . Prove that kk divides n!n! .

Problem 8

Pairwise distinct real numbers are arranged into an m×nm \times n rectangular array. In each row the entries are arranged increasingly from left to right. Each column is then rearranged in decreasing order from top to bottom. Prove that in the reorganized array, the rows remain arranged increasingly.

Problem 9

Find all continuous monotonic functions f:R→Rf : R \to R that satisfy f(1)=1f (1) = 1 and f(f(x))=f(x)2f(f (x)) = f (x)^2 for all x∈Rx \in R .
