Problem 1

All positive integers are coloured either red or green, such that the following conditions are satisfi ed:

  • There are equally many red as green integers.
  • The sum of three (not necessarily distinct) red integers is red.
  • The sum of three (not necessarily distinct) green integers is green. Find all colourings that satisfy these conditions.

Problem 2

In an acute triangle ABCABC the angle ∠C\angle C is greater than ∠A\angle A . Let EE be such that AEAE is a diameter of the circumscribed circle Γ\Gamma of \vartriangle ABC. Let KK be the intersection of ACAC and the tangent line at BB to Γ\Gamma . Let LL be the orthogonal projection of KK on AEAE and let DD be the intersection of KLKL and ABAB . Prove that CECE is the bisector of ∠BCD\angle BCD .

Problem 3

Find all triples (x,y,z)(x, y, z) of real numbers that satisfy x2+y2+z2+1=xy+yz+zx+∣x−2y+z∣x^2 + y^2 + z^2 + 1 = xy + yz + zx +|x - 2y + z| .

Problem 4

Let n≥2n \ge 2 be an integer. Let aa be the greatest positive integer such that 2a∣5n−3n2^a | 5^n - 3^n . Let bb be the greatest positive integer such that 2b≤n2^b \le n . Prove that a≤b+3a \le b + 3 .

Problem 5

A trapezoid ABCDABCD is given with BC//ADBC // AD . Assume that the bisectors of the angles BADBAD and CDACDA intersect on the perpendicular bisector of the line segment BCBC . Prove that ∣AB∣=∣CD∣|AB|= |CD| or ∣AB∣+∣CD∣=∣AD∣|AB| +|CD| =|AD| .
