Problem 1

In the given figure, ABCDA B C D is a square paper. It is folded along EFE F such that AA goes to a point A′≠C,BA^{\prime} \neq C, B on the side BCB C and DD goes to D′D^{\prime}. The line A′D′A^{\prime} D^{\prime} cuts CDC D in GG. Show that the inradius of the triangle GCA′G C A^{\prime} is the sum of the inradii of the triangles GD′FG D^{\prime} F and A′BEA^{\prime} B E.

Problem 2

Suppose n≥0n \geq 0 is an integer and all the roots of x3+αx+4−(2×2016n)=0x^{3}+\alpha x+4-\left(2 \times 2016^{n}\right)=0 are integers. Find all possible values of α\alpha.

Problem 3

Find the number of triples (x,a,b)(x, a, b) where xx is a real number and a,ba, b belong to the set {1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9}\{1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9\} such that

x2−a{x}+b=0x^{2}-a\{x\}+b=0

where {x}\{x\} denotes the fractional part of the real number xx. (For example {1.1}=0.1=\{1.1\}=0.1= {−0.9}\{-0.9\}.

Problem 4

Let ABCDEA B C D E be a convex pentagon in which ∠A=∠B=∠C=∠D=120∘\angle A=\angle B=\angle C=\angle D=120^{\circ} and whose side lengths are 5 consecutive integers in some order. Find all possible values of AB+BC+CDA B+B C+C D.

Problem 5

Let ABCA B C be a triangle with ∠A=90∘\angle A=90^{\circ} and AB<ACA B<A C. Let ADA D be the altitude from AA on to BCB C. Let P,QP, Q and II denote respectively the incentres of triangles ABD,ACDA B D, A C D and ABCA B C. Prove that AIA I is perpendicular to PQP Q and AI=PQA I=P Q.

Problem 6

Let n≥1n \geq 1 be an integer and consider the sum

x=∑k≥0(n2k)2n−2k3k=(n0)2n+(n2)2n−2⋅3+(n4)2n−4⋅32+⋯x=\sum_{k \geq 0}\binom{n}{2 k} 2^{n-2 k} 3^{k}=\binom{n}{0} 2^{n}+\binom{n}{2} 2^{n-2} \cdot 3+\binom{n}{4} 2^{n-4} \cdot 3^{2}+\cdots

Show that 2x−1,2x,2x+12 x-1,2 x, 2 x+1 form the sides of a triangle whose area and inradius are also integers.
