We are halfway through summer, so be sure to carve out some time to keep your skills sharp and explore challenging topics at AoPS Online and our AoPS Academies (including the Virtual Campus)!
[list][*]Over 60 summer classes are starting at the Virtual Campus on July 7th - check out the math and language arts options for middle through high school levels.
[*]At AoPS Online, we have accelerated sections where you can complete a course in half the time by meeting twice/week instead of once/week, starting on July 8th:
[list][*]MATHCOUNTS/AMC 8 Basics
[*]MATHCOUNTS/AMC 8 Advanced
[*]AMC Problem Series[/list]
[*]Plus, AoPS Online has a special seminar July 14 - 17 that is outside the standard fare: Paradoxes and Infinity
[*]We are expanding our in-person AoPS Academy locations - are you looking for a strong community of problem solvers, exemplary instruction, and math and language arts options? Look to see if we have a location near you and enroll in summer camps or academic year classes today! New locations include campuses in California, Georgia, New York, Illinois, and Oregon and more coming soon![/list]
MOP (Math Olympiad Summer Program) just ended and the IMO (International Mathematical Olympiad) is right around the corner! This year’s IMO will be held in Australia, July 10th - 20th. Congratulations to all the MOP students for reaching this incredible level and best of luck to all selected to represent their countries at this year’s IMO! Did you know that, in the last 10 years, 59 USA International Math Olympiad team members have medaled and have taken over 360 AoPS Online courses. Take advantage of our Worldwide Online Olympiad Training (WOOT) courses
and train with the best! Please note that early bird pricing ends August 19th!
Are you tired of the heat and thinking about Fall? You can plan your Fall schedule now with classes at either AoPS Online, AoPS Academy Virtual Campus, or one of our AoPS Academies around the US.

Let be the circumcenter and the orthocenter of an acute triangle . Prove that the area of one of the triangles , and is equal to the sum of the areas of the other two.
There is a lack of trigonometric bash practice, and I want to see techniques to do these problems. So here are 10 kinds of problems that are usually out in the wild. How do you tackle these problems? (I had ChatGPT write a code for this.). Please give me some general techniques to solve these kinds of problems, especially set 2b. I’ll add more later.

Problem Set 1a. Show that
I admit 1a-6 and 1a-10 is a bit easy analytically. However, the point of the exercise is improving the ability of trigonometric identities.
Title says most of it. I've been meaning to post a problem set on HSM since at least a few months ago, but since I proposed the most recent problems I made to the 2025 SSMO, I had to wait for that happen. (Hence, most of these problems will probably be familiar if you participated in that contest, though numbers and wording may be changed.) The problems are very roughly arranged by difficulty. Enjoy!

Hi! I'm not comfortable with latex yet so bear with me please.
Q. in triABC, BD and CE are the bisectors of angles B,C cutting CA, AB at D,E respectively. if angle BDE= 24deg and angle CED= 18deg, find the angles of triABC.
I did find out angle A which comes out to be Click to reveal hidden text
96 deg
but i'm stuck on the other two. help would be appreciated.
thanks!
Hi guys,
Lately i've been trying to understand the proof for the Chinese Remainder Theorem, however i have unfortunately had no luck. Can anybody post about how they understand the proof and please go step by step?
Appreciate it.
