%V0 Let $A,B,C,D$ be four distinct points on a line, in that order. The circles with diameters $AC$ and $BD$ intersect at $X$ and $Y$. The line $XY$ meets $BC$ at $Z$. Let $P$ be a point on the line $XY$ other than $Z$. The line $CP$ intersects the circle with diameter $AC$ at $C$ and $M$, and the line $BP$ intersects the circle with diameter $BD$ at $B$ and $N$. Prove that the lines $AM,DN,XY$ are concurrent.

%V0 We are given a positive integer $r$ and a rectangular board $ABCD$ with dimensions $AB = 20, BC = 12$. The rectangle is divided into a grid of $20 \times 12$ unit squares. The following moves are permitted on the board: one can move from one square to another only if the distance between the centers of the two squares is $\sqrt {r}$. The task is to find a sequence of moves leading from the square with $A$ as a vertex to the square with $B$ as a vertex. (a) Show that the task cannot be done if $r$ is divisible by 2 or 3. (b) Prove that the task is possible when $r = 73$. (c) Can the task be done when $r = 97$?

%V0 Two circles $G_1$ and $G_2$ intersect at two points $M$ and $N$. Let $AB$ be the line tangent to these circles at $A$ and $B$, respectively, so that $M$ lies closer to $AB$ than $N$. Let $CD$ be the line parallel to $AB$ and passing through the point $M$, with $C$ on $G_1$ and $D$ on $G_2$. Lines $AC$ and $BD$ meet at $E$; lines $AN$ and $CD$ meet at $P$; lines $BN$ and $CD$ meet at $Q$. Show that $EP = EQ$.

%V0 Let $n \geq 3$ be an integer. Let $t_1$, $t_2$, ..., $t_n$ be positive real numbers such that $n^2 + 1 > \left( t_1 + t_2 + ... + t_n \right) \left( \frac{1}{t_1} + \frac{1}{t_2} + ... + \frac{1}{t_n} \right)$. Show that $t_i$, $t_j$, $t_k$ are side lengths of a triangle for all $i$, $j$, $k$ with $1 \leq i < j < k \leq n$.

%V0 In triangle $ABC$ the bisector of angle $BCA$ intersects the circumcircle again at $R$, the perpendicular bisector of $BC$ at $P$, and the perpendicular bisector of $AC$ at $Q$. The midpoint of $BC$ is $K$ and the midpoint of $AC$ is $L$. Prove that the triangles $RPK$ and $RQL$ have the same area. Author: Marek Pechal, Czech Republic

%V0 Let $ABC$ be a triangle with $AB = AC$ . The angle bisectors of $\angle C AB$ and $\angle AB C$ meet the sides $B C$ and $C A$ at $D$ and $E$ , respectively.
