Problem 1

Prove that the set {1,2,⋯ ,2007}\{1, 2, \cdots, 2007\} can be expressed as the union of disjoint subsets AiA_i for i=1,2,⋯ ,223i=1,2,\cdots, 223 such that each AiA_i contains nine elements and the sum of all the elements in each AiA_i is the same.

Problem 2

Find the largest integer nn for which n2007+n2006+⋯+n2+n+1n+2007\frac{n^{2007}+n^{2006}+\cdots+n^2+n+1}{n+2007} is an integer.

Problem 3

Let PP be a point outside a circle Γ\Gamma , and let the two tangent lines through PP touch Γ\Gamma at AA and BB . Let CC be on the minor arc ABAB , and let ray PCPC intersect Γ\Gamma again at DD . Let ℓ\ell be the line through BB and parallel to PAPA . ℓ\ell intersects ACAC and ADAD at EE and FF , respectively. Prove that BB is the midpoint of EFEF .

Problem 4

Let f:R→Rf:\mathbb{R}\rightarrow \mathbb{R} be a function defined by f(x)=20082x2008+20082xf(x)=\frac{2008^{2x}}{2008+2008^{2x}} . Prove that f(12007)+f(22007)+⋯+f(20052007)+f(20062007)=1003.\begin{aligned} f\left(\frac{1}{2007}\right)+f\left(\frac{2}{2007}\right)+\cdots+f\left(\frac{2005}{2007}\right)+f\left(\frac{2006}{2007}\right)=1003. \end{aligned}
