Let be a triangle with circumcircle and let be the -excircle. Let and be the intersection points of and . Let and be the projections of onto the tangent lines to at and respectively. The tangent line at to the circumcircle of the triangle intersects the tangent line at to the circumcircle of the triangle at a point . Prove that .

Let and : Prove that :

The school A has m1 boys and m2 girls, and ,the school B has n1 boys and n2 girls. Each school is represented by one team formed by p students,boys and girls. If f(k) is the number of cases for which,the twice schools has,togheter k girls, fund f(k) and the valute of k, for which f(k) is maximum.

A chess king was placed on a square of an board and made moves so that it visited all squares and returned to the starting square. At every moment, the distance from the center of the square the king was on to the center of the board was calculated. A move is called if this distance becomes smaller after the move. Find the maximum possible number of pleasant moves. (The chess king moves to a square adjacent either by side or by corner.)

We say that a positive integer is lovely if there exist a positive integer and (not necessarily distinct) positive integers , , , such that and for .

a) Are there infinitely many lovely numbers?

b) Is there a lovely number, greater than , which is a perfect square of an integer?

Let be an odd prime. Prove that:

For any fixed integer , prove that there exists a positive integer , such that for any integer , can be expressed by a sum of positive integers 's as
where , , , .

Let be a function such that
for all . Determine all such functions .

Find all functions such that the equality holds for all pairs of real numbers .

My solution

I feel like my solution is too simple. Is there something I did wrong or something I missed?

Find all polynomials with integer coefficients such that and is a square of an integer for all nonnegative integers .

Remark: For a nonnegative integer and an integer , is defined as follows: if and if .
