Problem 3

  • Day 1

Let ABCDABCD be a trapezoid (quadrilateral with one pair of parallel sides) such that AB<CDAB < CD . Suppose that ACAC and BDBD meet at EE and ADAD and BCBC meet at FF . Construct the parallelograms AEDKAEDK and BECLBECL . Prove that EFEF passes through the midpoint of the segment KLKL .

Problem 4

  • Day 1

Determine all polynomials with integral coefficients P(x)P(x) such that if a,b,ca,b,c are the sides of a right-angled triangle, then P(a),P(b),P(c)P(a), P(b), P(c) are also the sides of a right-angled triangle. (Sides of a triangle are necessarily positive. Note that it's not necessary for the order of sides to be preserved; if cc is the hypotenuse of the first triangle, it's not necessary that P(c)P(c) is the hypotenuse of the second triangle, and similar with the others.)

Problem 8

  • Day 2

A positive integer is called beautiful if it can be represented in the form x2+y2x+y\dfrac{x^2+y^2}{x+y} for two distinct positive integers x,yx,y . A positive integer that is not beautiful is ugly.

a) Prove that 20142014 is a product of a beautiful number and an ugly number. b) Prove that the product of two ugly numbers is also ugly.
