Problem 1

Find the smallest positive multiple of 2020 with exactly 2020 positive divisors.

Problem 2

Let SS be a square with sides of length 22 and RR be a rhombus with sides of length 22 and angles measuring 60∘60^\circ and 120∘120^\circ . These quadrilaterals are arranged to have the same centre and the diagonals of the rhombus are parallel to the sides of the square. Calculate the area of the region on which the figures overlap.

Problem 3

If xx , yy , zz are real numbers satisfying \begin{align*} (x + 1)(y + 1)(z + 1) & = 3 (x + 2)(y + 2)(z + 2) & = -2 (x + 3)(y + 3)(z + 3) & = -1, \end{align*} find the value of (x+20)(y+20)(z+20).(x + 20)(y + 20)(z + 20).

Problem 4

A positive integer kk is said to be visionary if there are integers a>0a > 0 and b≥0b \geq 0 such that a⋅k+b⋅(k+1)=2020.a \cdot k + b \cdot (k + 1) = 2020. How many visionary integers are there?

Problem 5

Let ABCABC be a triangle, and let TT be a point on the extension of ABAB beyond BB , and UU a point on the extension of ACAC beyond CC , such that BT=CUBT = CU . Moreover, let RR and SS be points on the extensions of ABAB and ACAC beyond AA such that AS=ATAS = AT and AR=AUAR = AU . Prove that RR , SS , TT , UU lie on a circle whose centre lies on the circumcircle of ABCABC .

Problem 6

Marjorie is the drum major of the world's largest marching band, with more than one million members. She would like the band members to stand in a square formation. To this end, she determines the smallest integer nn such that the band would fit in an n×nn \times n square, and lets the members form rows of nn people. However, she is dissatisfied with the result, since some empty positions remain. Therefore, she tells the entire first row of nn members to go home and repeats the process with the remaining members. Her aim is to continue it until the band forms a perfect square, but as it happens, she does not succeed until the last members are sent home. Determine the smallest possible number of members in this marching band.
