WOOT early bird pricing is in effect, don’t miss out! If you took MathWOOT Level 2 last year, no worries, it is all new problems this year! Our Worldwide Online Olympiad Training program is for high school level competitors. AoPS designed these courses to help our top students get the deep focus they need to succeed in their specific competition goals. Check out the details at this link for all our WOOT programs in math, computer science, chemistry, and physics.

Looking for summer camps in math and language arts? Be sure to check out the video-based summer camps offered at the Virtual Campus that are 2- to 4-weeks in duration. There are middle and high school competition math camps as well as Math Beasts camps that review key topics coupled with fun explorations covering areas such as graph theory (Math Beasts Camp 6), cryptography (Math Beasts Camp 7-8), and topology (Math Beasts Camp 8-9)!

Be sure to mark your calendars for the following events:
[list][*]April 3rd (Webinar), 4pm PT/7:00pm ET, Learning with AoPS: Perspectives from a Parent, Math Camp Instructor, and University Professor

Initially, there are a total of $k$ coins on the chessboard where each coin is only loaded exactly on one square and each square can contain coins or blanks. At each turn. You must select exactly one plot that holds the minimum number of coins in the number of neighbors of the plot and then you must give exactly one coin to each neighbor of the selected plot. The game ends if you are no longer able to select squares with the intended conditions. The smallest number of $k$ so that the game never ends for any initial square selection is ....

angle of isosceles wanted, 4HK=AB, altitudes (2021 Euler Olympiad Remote 2.4)

$AH$ is the altitude of an isosceles triangle $ABC$ ($AB = BC$). $HK$ is the altitude of the triangle $AHB$. It turned out that $4HK = AB$. What could be the measure of the angle $ABC$?

$\Delta AHB$ is a right triangle with right angle at $H$.
If $AK=x$ and $BK=y$, we have
$$x+y=4\sqrt{xy}$$$$x^2+y^2+2xy=16xy$$$$x^2+y^2-14xy=0$$Define $u=\frac{x}{y}$
$$u^2-14u+1=0$$$$u=7\pm 4\sqrt{3}$$Note that $\tan\angle B=\sqrt{u}$, which is
$$\sqrt{7\pm 4\sqrt{3}}$$$$2\pm\sqrt{3}$$
This means $\angle B=15,75$
