Instructions:

 All answers should be exact. Never use approximations. For example:


o DO NOT approximate √𝟐 = 𝟏. 𝟒𝟏𝟒𝟐. Just leave it as √𝟐 in the formula.
𝟐𝟐
o DO NOT approximate 𝝅 ≈ 𝒐𝒓 𝝅 ≈ 𝟑. 𝟏𝟒. Just leave it as 𝝅.
𝟕
 Simplify your answers.
 Calculator is not allowed in the test. If a student is making long, time-consuming calculations, he is
probably on the wrong track.
 The working of candidate will be used in assessment of his problem solving approach.

Version 1

Problem 1:- Ammar is given 27 standard dice and asked to glue them together into a
larger 3 × 3 × 3 cube, so that the adjacent faces (i.e. the faces glued together) have the
same number of dots. What is the maximal number of dots that Ammar can leave visible
on the outside of his 3 × 3 × 3 cube?
Note: Two views of the standard dice are shown below. The faces are arranged so that
opposite sides add to 7.

Problem 6:- Salem drew a right triangle 𝐴𝐵𝐶 with a right angle at vertex 𝐵. The size of
the angle 𝐵𝐴𝐶 was 30 (in degree). Then he marked a midpoint of 𝐴𝐶 and named it M.
Finally, he added a point 𝐷 on side 𝐴𝐵 such that 𝐵𝐷 = 𝐵𝐶. Find the size of the angle
𝐵𝑀𝐷 in degree.

Solution:

75°

In right-angled triangle ABC, ∠ABC = 90°, ∠BAC = 30°. Therefore, ∠BCA = 180° - 90° -
30° = 60°.

Since M is the midpoint of AC, BM is the median to the hypotenuse. In a right-angled


triangle, the median to the hypotenuse is half the length of the hypotenuse.

Thus, BM = AM = MC = AC/2.

Given BD = BC. In triangle BCD, BC = BD, so triangle BCD is an isosceles triangle.

In triangle ABC, BC/AC = sin(30°) = 1/2. Therefore, AC = 2BC = 2BD.

Since BM = AC/2, BM = BD. Therefore, triangle BMD is an isosceles triangle.

In triangle ABC, we have AB/AC = cos(30°) = √3/2, so AB = (√3/2)AC = √3 BC = √3 BD.

In triangle BMD, BM = BD. Let ∠BMD = x. Then ∠BDM = x. In triangle BMD, the sum of
angles is 180°. Therefore, ∠DBM + x + x = 180°.

∠DBM = ∠ABC - ∠DBC = 90° - ∠DBC. We need to find ∠DBC. In isosceles triangle BCD,
