Problem 2

Circle with center II , inscribed in a triangle ABCABC , touches the sides BCBC and ACAC at points A1A_1 and B1B_1 respectively. On rays A1IA_1I and B1IB_1I , respectively, let be the points A2A_2 and B2B_2 such that IA2=IB2=RIA_2=IB_2=R , where RR is the radius of the circumscribed circle of the triangle ABCABC . Prove that: a) AA2=BB2=OIAA_2 = BB_2 = OI where OO is the center of the circumscribed circle of the triangle ABCABC , b) lines AA2AA_2 and BB2BB_2 intersect on the circumcircle of the triangle ABCABC .

Problem 3

Find all non-decreasing functions f : N→Nf\,:\,\mathbb{N}\to\mathbb{N} , such that f(f(m)f(n)+m)=f(mf(n))+f(m)f(f(m)f(n)+m)=f(mf(n))+f(m)

Problem 4

In the film there is nn roles. For each ii ( 1≤i≤n1 \le i \le n ), the role of number ii can play aia_i a person, and one person can play only one role. Every day a casting is held, in which participate people for nn roles, and from each role only one person. Let pp be a prime number such that p≥a1,…,an,np \ge a_1, \ldots, a_n, n . Prove that you can have pkp^k castings such that if we take any kk people who are tried in different roles, they together participated in some casting ( kk is a natural number not exceeding nn ).
