Problem 1

Let ABCABC be an acute triangle with AB<ACAB<AC . The angle bisector of BACBAC intersects the side BCBC and the circumcircle of ABCABC at DD and M≠AM\neq A , respectively. Points XX and YY are chosen so that MX⊥ABMX \perp AB , BX⊥MBBX \perp MB , MY⊥ACMY \perp AC , and CY⊥MCCY \perp MC . Prove that the points X,D,YX,D,Y are collinear.

Problem 2

Let m,n≥2m,n\ge 2 be given integers. Prove that there exist positive integers a1<a2<…<ama_1<a_2<\ldots<a_m so that for any 1≤i<j≤m1\le i<j\le m the number ajaj−ai\frac{a_j}{a_j-a_i} is an integer divisible by nn .

Problem 3

One has marked nn points on a circle and has drawn a certain number of chords whose endpoints are the marked points. It turned out that the following property is satisfied: whenever any 20212021 drawn chords are removed one can join any two marked points by a broken line composed of some of the remaining drawn chords. Prove that one can remove some of the drawn chords so that at most 2022n2022n chords remain and the property described above is preserved.

Problem 4

Find all triples (a,b,c)(a,b,c) of real numbers satisfying the system {a3+b2c=acb3+c2a=bac3+a2b=cb\begin{cases} a^3+b^2c=ac b^3+c^2a=ba c^3+a^2b=cb \end{cases}

Problem 5

Let ABCABC be a triangle satisfying AB<ACAB<AC . Let MM be the midpoint of BCBC . A point PP lies on the segment ABAB with AP>PBAP>PB . A point QQ lies on the segment ACAC with ∠MPA=∠AQM\angle MPA = \angle AQM . The perpendicular bisectors of BCBC and PQPQ intersect at SS . Prove that ∠BAC+∠QSP=∠QMP\angle BAC + \angle QSP = \angle QMP .

Problem 6

A prime number pp and a positive integer nn are given. Prove that one can colour every one of the numbers 1,2,…,p−11,2,\ldots,p-1 using one of the 2n2n colours so that for any i=2,3,…,ni=2,3,\ldots,n the sum of any ii numbers of the same colour is not divisible by pp .
