Other problems

Problem 1

Determine all real numbers xx such that for all positive integers nn the inequality (1+x)n≤1+(2n−1)x(1+x)^n \leq 1+(2^n -1)x is true.

Problem 2

Let AA be the set of odd integers ≤2n−1.\leq 2n-1. For a positive integer mm , let B={a+m ∣a∈A}.B=\{a+m\,| a\in A \}. Determine for which positive integers nn there exists a positive integer mm such that the product of all elements in AA and BB is a square.

Problem 3

We say that two triangles are oriented similarly if they are similar and have the same orientation. Prove that if ALT,ARM,ORT,ALT, ARM, ORT, and ULMULM are four triangles which are oriented similarly, then AA is the midpoint of the line segment OU.OU.

Problem 4

Find all triangles such that its angles form an arithmetic sequence and the corresponding sides form a geometric sequence.

Problem 5

Determine all finite sets MM of real numbers such that MM contains at least 22 numbers and any two elements of MM belong to an arithmetic progression of elements of MM with three terms.
