Two circles ω1 and ω2 , each of radius 112, are drawn such that their centers
lie on each others’ circumferences. Then, two smaller circles with equal
radii are drawn such that they are both internally tangent to ω1 and ω2 ,
and are externally tangent to each other. What is the radius of one of the
smaller circles?
√ √
2. Each√ of the functions
√ f (x) and g(x) is either equal to x − 1 + x − 9
or x − 1 − x − 9 (the functions may be the same or different). The
equation f (g(x)) = 2 has exactly one real solution, which can be expressed
as pq , where p and q are relatively prime positive integers. Compute p + q.
3. Noelle writes down the factors of 24 · 179 from least to greatest. Starting
with the first factor, she circles every other factor. Noelle then records
the sum of all of the circled factors, as well as sum of all of the uncircled
factors. The ratio of the smaller recorded sum to the larger recorded sum
is ab , where a and b are relatively prime positive integers. Compute 2a + b.
4. Point P is located in the interior of regular hexagon ABCDEF so that the
distance from P to the sides√AB, CD, and EF are 8, 4, and 9 respectively.
Then the length of AB is a c b , where a and c are relatively prime and b is
not divisible by the square of any prime. Find a + b + c.
5. A token is placed in the top left square of a 5 × 4 checkerboard. A move
consists of moving the token one square up, down, to the left, or to the
right, so long as the token does not move off of the checkerboard. How
many nine-move sequences move the token to the bottom right square?
6. Define the sequence {an } so that a0 = 1, a1 = 2, a2 = 3, and for all n > 2,
an = lcm(an−1 , an−2 + an−3 ).
Compute the remainder when the number of divisors of a100 is divided by
1000.
7. Suppose a, b, c and d are (not necessarily distinct) prime numbers such
that a + b + c − 3d = 42 and ab + bc + ca − 3d = 182 . Compute abc − 3d.
8. Seven teams play a round-robin tournament, where each pair of teams
plays each other exactly once. In any match, the two teams are equally
likely to win, with no ties, and all match results are independent. The
probability that at most five teams win at least two matches is pq , where
p and q are relatively prime positive integers. Find p.
9. A spotlight is 30 meters away from a very large wall, and can cast a beam
of light in the shape of a right circular cone, with its apex at the spotlight’s
location. The region of the wall that the spotlight illuminates is a circular
disk with center A and an area of 300π square meters. The spotlight is
then swiveled so that point A lies on the perimeter of √ the illuminated
area. The new illuminated area, in square meters, is aπ b, where b is not
divisible by the square of any prime. Compute a + b.

10. Delthea brings two copies each of four different books to a book club and
gives them to five friends so that no one gets two copies of the same book.
She then observes that the only non-empty subset of friends for which the
books she gave them can be paired up with their identical copies is the
entire group of five friends. If N is the number of ways that Delthea could
have given the books, find N/10.
11. Let P (x) = ak xk + ak−1 xk−1 + . . . + a1 x1 + a0 be the polynomial that
Xk

satisfies (x + x − 1)P (x) = (x − 1) − x + 1 for all x. Compute |ai |.

Let N be the sum of the number of digit swaps that happen, over all
different sequences of moves. Compute the remainder when N is divided
by 1000.
15. Let S be the set of all complex numbers w such that |w| = 53. Let a1
aj − (7 + 13i)
and a2 be two distinct complex numbers in S such that is
aj − (55 − 7i)
imaginary for j = 1, 2, and let b1 and b2 be two distinct complex numbers
bk − (41 + 27i)
in S such that is imaginary for k = 1, 2. Let z be the
bk − (81 + 39i)
z − a1 z − b1
complex number that satisfies the property that both and
z − a2 z − b2
are real. Then z = m + ni for real numbers m and n. Find m + n.
