1234th Post!
PikaPika999   258
I hit my 1234th post! (I think I missed it, I'm kinda late, :oops_sign:)

But here's a puzzle for you all! Try to create the numbers 1 through 25 using the numbers 1, 2, 3, and 4! You are only allowed to use addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, and parenthesis. If you're post #1, try to make 1. If you're post #2, try to make 2. If you're post #3, try to make 3, and so on. If you're a post after 25, then I guess you can try to make numbers greater than 25 but you can use factorials, square roots, and that stuff. Have fun!

1: $(4-3)\cdot(2-1)$

SMT Online 2025 Certificates/Question Paper/Grading
techb   9
It is May 1st. I have been anticipating the arrival of my results displayed in the awards ceremony in the form of a digital certificate. I have unfortunately not received anything. I have heard from other sources(AoPS, and the internet), that the certificates generally arrive at the end of the month. I would like to ask the organizers, or the coordinators of the tournament, to at least give us an ETA. I would like to further elaborate on the expedition of the release of the Question Papers and the grading. The question papers would be very helpful to the people who have taken the contest, and also to other people who would like to solve them. It would also help, as people can discuss the problems that were given in the test, and know different strategies to solve a problem they have solved. In regards to the grading, it would be a crucial piece of evidence to dispute the score shown in the awards ceremony, in case the contestant is not satisfied.

Question about AMC 10
MathNerdRabbit103   7
Hi,

Can anybody predict a good score that I can get on the AMC 10 this November by only being good at counting and probability, number theory, and algebra? I know some geometry because I took it in school though, but it isn’t competition math so it probably doesn’t count.

Thanks.

Special line through antipodal
Phorphyrion   10
Source: 2025 Israel TST Test 1 P2
Triangle $\triangle ABC$ is inscribed in circle $\Omega$. Let $I$ denote its incenter and $I_A$ its $A$-excenter. Let $N$ denote the midpoint of arc $BAC$. Line $NI_A$ meets $\Omega$ a second time at $T$. The perpendicular to $AI$ at $I$ meets sides $AC$ and $AB$ at $E$ and $F$ respectively. The circumcircle of $\triangle BFT$ meets $BI_A$ a second time at $P$, and the circumcircle of $\triangle CET$ meets $CI_A$ a second time at $Q$. Prove that $PQ$ passes through the antipodal to $A$ on $\Omega$.

Introducing myself at AoPS, and what's your magic wand?
asuth_asuth   1053
Hi!

I'm Andrew Sutherland. I'm the new Chief Product Officer at AoPS. As you may have read, Richard is retiring and Ben Kornell and I are working together to lead the company now. I'm leading all the software and digital stuff at AoPS. I just wanted to say hello and introduce myself! I'm really excited to be part of the special community that is AoPS.

Previously, I founded Quizlet as a 15-year-old high school student. I did Course 6 at MIT and then left to lead Quizlet full-time for a total of 14 years. I took a few years off and now I'm doing AoPS! I wrote more about all that on my blog: https://asuth.com/im-joining-aops

I have a question for all of you. If you could wave a magic wand, and change anything about AoPS, what would it be? All suggestions welcome! Thank you.

There is an Office Hours bar?
NumberNinja11   1
Hi! I've noticed a lot of posts about Office Hours banners, but I've never had an Office Hours banner after my 5 or so classes of AoPS. Is there a setting I'm missing? I didn't even know that there should be a banner until recently. Has Office Hours stopped happening or something? -NumberNinja11

Rely box disappearing
Craftybutterfly   11
For some reason, on my iPhone XR, when I press on the view my posts button, then press on an unlocked topic and scroll down or press go down button, the reply box disappears. I can’t use the proper format right now as I am on phone.
