Other problems

Problem 1

Find a positive integrer number nn such that, if yor put a number 22 on the left and a number 11 on the right, the new number is equal to 33n33n .

Problem 2

Let PP be a point outside the circle CC . Find two points QQ and RR on the circle, such that P,QP,Q and RR are collinear and QQ is the midpopint of the segmenet PRPR . (Discuss the number of solutions).

Problem 3

Consider the set SS of 100100 numbers: 1;12;13;...;11001; \frac{1}{2}; \frac{1}{3}; ... ; \frac{1}{100} . Any two numbers, aa and bb , are eliminated in SS , and the number a+b+aba+b+ab is added. Now, there are 9999 numbers on SS . After doing this operation 9999 times, there's only 11 number on SS . What values can this number take?

Problem 4

Prove that there aren't any positive integrer numbers x,y,zx,y,z such that x2+y2=3z2x^2+y^2=3z^2 .

Problem 5

In a △ABC\triangle {ABC} , consider a point EE in BCBC such that AE⊥BCAE \perp BC . Prove that AE=bc2rAE=\frac{bc}{2r} , where rr is the radio of the circle circumscripte, b=ACb=AC and c=ABc=AB .

Problem 6

Consider a m∗nm*n board. On each box there's a non-negative integrer number assigned. An operation consists on choosing any two boxes with 11 side in common, and add to this 22 numbers the same integrer number (it can be negative), so that both results are non-negatives. What conditions must be satisfied initially on the assignment of the boxes, in order to have, after some operations, the number 00 on every box?.
