2005 Balkan MO: Contributors: Zhaoli, Pbornsztein, Andrei, Dzeta

This document contains a summary of problems from the 2005 Balkan Mathematics Olympiad: 1) Prove that a triangle formed by intersecting lines from an inscribed circle is equilateral if and only if one angle of the original triangle is 60 degrees. 2) Find all prime numbers p such that p^2 - p + 1 is a perfect cube. 3) Prove an inequality involving sums of powers of three positive real numbers and find when equality occurs. 4) Determine the maximum possible number of elements in a set where no two elements divide each other or are coprime.

Balkan MO 2005

– May 6th

1 Let ABC be an acute-angled triangle whose inscribed circle touches AB and


AC at D and E respectively. Let X and Y be the points of intersection of
the bisectors of the angles ∠ACB and ∠ABC with the line DE and let Z be
the midpoint of BC. Prove that the triangle XY Z is equilateral if and only if
∠A = 60◦ .

2 Find all primes p such that p2 − p + 1 is a perfect cube.

3 Let a, b, c be positive real numbers. Prove the inequality

a 2 b2 c 2 4(a − b)2
+ + ≥a+b+c+ .
b c a a+b+c

When does equality occur?

4 Let n ≥ 2 be an integer. Let S be a subset of {1, 2, . . . , n} such that S neither


contains two elements one of which divides the other, nor contains two elements
which are coprime. What is the maximal possible number of elements of such
a set S?
