May is an exciting month! National MATHCOUNTS is the second week of May in Washington D.C. and our Founder, Richard Rusczyk will be presenting a seminar, Preparing Strong Math Students for College and Careers, on May 11th.

Are you interested in working towards MATHCOUNTS and don’t know where to start? We have you covered! If you have taken Prealgebra, then you are ready for MATHCOUNTS/AMC 8 Basics. Already aiming for State or National MATHCOUNTS and harder AMC 8 problems? Then our MATHCOUNTS/AMC 8 Advanced course is for you.

Summer camps are starting next month at the Virtual Campus in math and language arts that are 2 - to 4 - weeks in duration. Spaces are still available - don’t miss your chance to have an enriching summer experience. 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 upcoming events:
[list][*]May 9th, 4:30pm PT/7:30pm ET, Casework 2: Overwhelming Evidence — A Text Adventure, a game where participants will work together to navigate the map, solve puzzles, and win! All are welcome.

Let $ABCD$ be a quadrilateral such that the excircles $\omega_{1}$ and $\omega_{2}$ of triangles $ABC$ and $BCD$ touching their sides $AB$ and $BD$ respectively touch the extension of $BC$ at the same point $P$. The segment $AD$ meets $\omega_{2}$ at point $Q$, and the line $AD$ meets $\omega_{1}$ at $R$ and $S$. Prove that one of angles $RPQ$ and $SPQ$ is right

Scientists found a new species of bird called “N-coloured rainbow”. They also found out 3 interesting facts about the bird’s life: 1) every day, N-coloured rainbow is coloured in one of N colors.
2) every day, the color is different from yesterday (not every previous day, just yesterday).
3) there are no four days i, j, k, l in the bird’s life such that i<j<k<l with colours a, b, c, d respectively for which a=c ≠ b=d.
Find the greatest possible age (in days) of this bird as a function of N.
