Apr 2, 2025
Spring is in full swing and summer is right around the corner, what are your plans? At AoPS Online our schedule has new classes starting now through July, so be sure to keep your skills sharp and be prepared for the Fall school year! Check out the schedule of upcoming classes below.

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

Source: Use your common sense! (enough is enough)
Some users don't want to learn, some other simply ignore advises.
But please follow the following guideline:


To make it short: ALWAYS USE YOUR COMMON SENSE IF POSTING!
If you don't have common sense, don't post.


More specifically:

For new threads:


a) Good, meaningful title:
The title has to say what the problem is about in best way possible.
If that title occured already, it's definitely bad. And contest names aren't good either.
That's in fact a requirement for being able to search old problems.

Examples:
Bad titles:
- "Hard"/"Medium"/"Easy" (if you find it so cool how hard/easy it is, tell it in the post and use a title that tells us the problem)
- "Number Theory" (hey guy, guess why this forum's named that way¿ and is it the only such problem on earth¿)
- "Fibonacci" (there are millions of Fibonacci problems out there, all posted and named the same...)
- "Chinese TST 2003" (does this say anything about the problem¿)
Good titles:
- "On divisors of a³+2b³+4c³-6abc"
- "Number of solutions to x²+y²=6z²"
- "Fibonacci numbers are never squares"


b) Use search function:
Before posting a "new" problem spend at least two, better five, minutes to look if this problem was posted before. If it was, don't repost it. If you have anything important to say on topic, post it in one of the older threads.
If the thread is locked cause of this, use search function.

Update (by Amir Hossein). The best way to search for two keywords in AoPS is to input
[code]+"first keyword" +"second keyword"[/code]
so that any post containing both strings "first word" and "second form".


c) Good problem statement:
Some recent really bad post was:
[quote]$lim_{n\to 1}^{+\infty}\frac{1}{n}-lnn$[/quote]
It contains no question and no answer.
If you do this, too, you are on the best way to get your thread deleted. Write everything clearly, define where your variables come from (and define the "natural" numbers if used). Additionally read your post at least twice before submitting. After you sent it, read it again and use the Edit-Button if necessary to correct errors.


For answers to already existing threads:


d) Of any interest and with content:
Don't post things that are more trivial than completely obvious. For example, if the question is to solve $x^{3}+y^{3}=z^{3}$, do not answer with "$x=y=z=0$ is a solution" only. Either you post any kind of proof or at least something unexpected (like "$x=1337, y=481, z=42$ is the smallest solution). Someone that does not see that $x=y=z=0$ is a solution of the above without your post is completely wrong here, this is an IMO-level forum.
Similar, posting "I have solved this problem" but not posting anything else is not welcome; it even looks that you just want to show off what a genius you are.

e) Well written and checked answers:
Like c) for new threads, check your solutions at least twice for mistakes. And after sending, read it again and use the Edit-Button if necessary to correct errors.



To repeat it: ALWAYS USE YOUR COMMON SENSE IF POSTING!


Everything definitely out of range of common sense will be locked or deleted (exept for new users having less than about 42 posts, they are newbies and need/get some time to learn).

The above rules will be applied from next monday (5. march of 2007).
Feel free to discuss on this here.

A game of solitaire is played with $R$ red cards, $W$ white cards, and $B$ blue cards. A player plays all the cards one at a time. With each play he accumulates a penalty. If he plays a blue card, then he is charged a penalty which is the number of white cards still in his hand. If he plays a white card, then he is charged a penalty which is twice the number of red cards still in his hand. If he plays a red card, then he is charged a penalty which is three times the number of blue cards still in his hand. Find, as a function of $R, W,$ and $B,$ the minimal total penalty a player can amass and all the ways in which this minimum can be achieved.

My solution:
Let $x,y$ be the tangent of $(ATD)$ and $(ATB)$ pass through $A$. We have $\angle XAC=\angle ATD+\angle DAC=\angle ABC$$ \Longrightarrow $ $x$ is the tangent of $(ABC)$. Similarly, we have $y$ is the tangent of $(ADC)$. From $\angle BCA=\angle ACD$ $ \Longrightarrow $ $\angle ATB=\angle ATD$ $ \Longrightarrow $ $TA$ is the bisector of $\angle DTB$.
Let $TD$ cut $CB$ at $L$. We will define the problem again: Suppose $A$ is the incenter of $\triangle DAC$ .$B$ is a point on $LC$ and $T$ is a point on the ray $LD$ sucth that $TA$ is the bisector of $\angle DTB$.$ \Longrightarrow $ $\angle TAB=\angle DAC=90^o+\frac{\angle DLC}{2}$ $ \Longrightarrow $ $\angle ABC=\angle DAC+\angle ATB$ and $\angle ADC=\angle BAC+\angle ATB$$ \Longrightarrow $ done.

$\angle ABC$ + $\angle CAB$ = $\angle ADC$ + $\angle CAD$ $ \Longrightarrow $ $\angle CAD$ + $\angle ATD$ +$\angle CAB$ = $\angle ATB$ + $\angle CAB$ + $\angle CAD$ $ \Longrightarrow $ $\angle ATD$ = $\angle ATB$ it means $C$ & $T$ move on a hyperbola($B$ & $D$ are focal points).
Let $C$ & $T$ go to $ \infty$ you see their hyperbola is the same $ \Longrightarrow $ $\angle CAD$ = $\angle TAB$.
Good luck in your olympiad ;)

Let $\angle BCA = \angle ACD = a$, $\angle BAC = y$, $\angle DAC = x$, $\angle BTA = b$ and $ATD = t$. Let $M,N$ be points on extension of $CB,CD$. $\angle 180 - a - x - b = y$ and $\angle 180 - a - y - t = x$ so $b = t$. Let $S$ be on $AC$ such that $\angle SBC = x$. Now we have $SBC$ and $DAC$ have spiral similarity and also $ABC$ and $DSC$. we have $\angle ABS = \angle ABC - x = t$ and $ADS = \angle ADC - y = b$. Let $AT$ meet $BS$ at $K$. Note that for proving $\angle BAT = x$ we need to prove $BAK$ is tangent to $BC$ or $\angle BKA = \angle ABM$. $\angle BKA = b - \angle TBK = t - \angle TBK = \angle ABT$. Let $BT$ meet $DS$ at $Q$. $\angle ADQ = b = \angle ATB \implies ATQD$ is cyclic so $\angle AQD = ATD = t = \angle ABS \implies ABSQ$ is cyclic. $\angle BKA = \angle ABT = \angle ABQ = \angle ASQ = \angle 180 - \angle DSC=  \angle 180 - \angle ABC = \angle MBA$ so $\angle BKA = \angle ABM$ so we're Done.

Let $\odot (ABT),\odot (ADT)$ intersect $AC$ again at $P,Q,$ and $AD,AB$ at $X,Y$ respectively. From $\measuredangle AXP=\measuredangle ATP=\measuredangle ATB+\measuredangle BAP=\measuredangle ADC$ we obtain $PX\parallel CD$ and analogously $PY\parallel CB.$ Therefore $$\measuredangle YBX=\measuredangle ATX=\measuredangle ACD=\measuredangle BCA=\measuredangle YTA=\measuredangle YDX,$$which yields $AXYT\stackrel{-}{\sim} ABDC,$ and the conclusion follows.
