Problem 1

Students in the class of Peter practice the addition and multiplication of integer numbers.The teacher writes the numbers from 11 to 99 on nine cards, one for each number, and places them in an ballot box. Pedro draws three cards, and must calculate the sum and the product of the three corresponding numbers. Ana and Julián do the same, emptying the ballot box. Pedro informs the teacher that he has picked three consecutive numbers whose product is 55 times the sum. Ana informs that she has no prime number, but two consecutive and that the product of these three numbers is 44 times the sum of them. What numbers did Julian remove?

Problem 2

Given a triangle ABCABC , with right ∠A\angle A , we know: the point TT of tangency of the circumference inscribed in ABCABC with the hypotenuse BCBC , the point DD of intersection of the angle bisector of ∠B\angle B with side AC and the point E of intersection of the angle bisector of ∠C\angle C with side ABAB . Describe a construction with ruler and compass for points AA , BB , and CC . Justify.

Problem 3

Arnaldo and Bernardo play a Super Naval Battle. Each has a board n×nn \times n . Arnaldo puts boats on his board (at least one but not known how many). Each boat occupies the nn houses of a line or a column and the boats they can not overlap or have a common side. Bernardo marks mm houses (representing shots) on your board. After Bernardo marked the houses, Arnaldo says which of them correspond to positions occupied by ships. Bernardo wins, and then discovers the positions of all Arnaldo's boats. Determine the lowest value of mm for which Bernardo can guarantee his victory.

Problem 4

Let ABCDABCD be a convex quadrilateral such that your diagonals ACAC and BDBD are perpendiculars. Let PP be the intersection of ACAC and BDBD , let MM a midpoint of ABAB . Prove that the quadrilateral ABCDABCD is cyclic, if and only if, the lines PMPM and DCDC are perpendiculars.

Problem 5

Consider the set A={1,2,...,n}A = \{1, 2, ..., n\} . For each integer kk , let rkr_k be the largest quantity of different elements of AA that we can choose so that the difference between two numbers chosen is always different from kk . Determine the highest value possible of rkr_k , where 1≤k≤n21 \le k \le \frac{n}{2}

Problem 6

Let nn a positive integer, n>1n > 1 . The number nn is wonderful if the number is divisible by sum of the your prime factors. For example; 9090 is wondeful, because 90=2×32×590 = 2 \times 3^2\times 5 and 2+3+5=10,102 + 3 + 5 = 10, 10 divides 9090 . Show that, exist a number "wonderful" with at least 10200210^{2002} distinct prime numbers.
