1 Reflect each of the shapes A, B over some lines lA , lB respectively and rotate the shape C such
that a 4 × 4 square is obtained. Identify the lines lA , lB and the center of the rotation, and also
draw the transformed versions of A, B and C under these operations.

3 Inside a convex quadrilateral ABCD with BC > AD, a point T is chosen. S lies on the segment
AT such that DT = BC, ∠T SD = 90◦ .

4 An inscribed n-gon (n > 3), is divided into n − 2 triangles by diagonals which meet only in
vertices. What is the maximum possible number of congruent triangles obtained?
(An inscribed n-gon is an n-gon where all its vertices lie on a circle)
Proposed by Boris Frenkin - Russia

5 Points Y, Z lie on the smaller arc BC of the circumcircle of an acute triangle △ABC (Y lies
on the smaller arc BZ). Let X be a point such that the triangles △ABC, △XY Z are similar (in
this exact order) with A, X lying on the same side of Y Z. Lines XY, XZ intersect sides AB, AC
at points E, F respectively. Let K be the intersection of lines BY, CZ. Prove that one of the
intersections of the circumcircles of triangles △AEF, △KBC lie on the line KX.

1 In the figure below points A, B are the centers of the circles ω1 , ω2 . Starting from the line BC
points E, F, G, H, I are obtained respectively. Find the angle ∠IBE.

2 Points X, Y lie on the side CD of a convex pentagon ABCDE with X between Y and C. Sup-

4 Eric has assembled a convex polygon P from finitely many centrally symmetric (not necessarily
congruent or convex) polygonal tiles. Prove that P is centrally symmetric.

5 Point P is the intersection of diagonals AC, BD of the trapezoid ABCD with AB ∥ CD. Reflec-
tions of the lines AD and BC into the internal angle bisectors of ∠P DC and ∠P CD intersects
the circumcircles of △AP D and △BP C at D′ and C ′ . Line C ′ A intersects the circumcircle of
