Common tangent to diameter circles
Stuttgarden   1
N 25 minutes ago by jrpartty
Source: Spain MO 2025 P2
The cyclic quadrilateral $ABCD$, inscribed in the circle $\Gamma$, satisfies $AB=BC$ and $CD=DA$, and $E$ is the intersection point of the diagonals $AC$ and $BD$. The circle with center $A$ and radius $AE$ intersects $\Gamma$ in two points $F$ and $G$. Prove that the line $FG$ is tangent to the circles with diameters $BE$ and $DE$.

Determine all functions $f : \mathbb{R} \rightarrow \mathbb{R}$ such that $$f(x) \le x^3$$and $$f(x + y) \le f(x) + f(y) + 3xy(x + y)$$for any real numbers $x$ and $y$.

For any positive integer $n$, let $f(n)$ denote the sum of squares of digits of $n$. Prove that the sequence $$f(n), f(f(n)), f(f(f(n))), \cdots$$is eventually periodic.

Set Combo <-> Grid Combo

Source: 2025 Nepal Mock TST Day 2 Problem 3
Consider an $n \times n$ grid, where $n$ is a composite integer.

The $n^2$ unit squares are divided up into $a$ disjoint sets of $b$ unit squares arbitrarily such that $ab = n^2$. Denote this family of sets as $S$.

The $n^2$ unit squares are again divided up into $c$ disjoint sets of $d$ unit squares arbitrarily such that $cd = n^2$. Denote this family of sets as $T$.

Is it necessarily possible to choose $\min(a,c)$ unit squares such that no two unit squares are in the same set of $S$ or the same set of $T$?

Source: 2025 Nepal Mock TST Day 1 Problem 3
Let $\triangle{ABC}$ be a triangle, and let $P$ be an arbitrary point on line $AO$, where $O$ is the circumcenter of $\triangle{ABC}$. Define $H_1$ and $H_2$ as the orthocenters of triangles $\triangle{APB}$ and $\triangle{APC}$. Prove that $H_1H_2$ passes through a fixed point which is independent of the choice of $P$.

Let $ABC$ be a right triangle in $A$ with $AB<AC$. Let $M$ be the midpoint of $AB$ and $D$ a point on $AC$ such that $DC=DB$. Let $X=(BDC)\cap MD$.
Compute in terms of $AB,BC$ and $AC$ the ratio $\frac{BX}{DX}$.
