Problem 1

Given triangle $ABC$ the point $J$ is the centre of the excircle opposite the vertex $A.$ This excircle is tangent to the side $BC$ at $M$, and to the lines $AB$ and $AC$ at $K$ and $L$, respectively. The lines $LM$ and $BJ$ meet at $F$, and the lines $KM$ and $CJ$ meet at $G.$ Let $S$ be the point of intersection of the lines $AF$ and $BC$, and let $T$ be the point of intersection of the lines $AG$ and $BC.$ Prove that $M$ is the midpoint of $ST.$

(The excircle of $ABC$ opposite the vertex $A$ is the circle that is tangent to the line segment $BC$, to the ray $AB$ beyond $B$, and to the ray $AC$ beyond $C$.)

Two circles $ G_1$ and $ G_2$ intersect at two points $ M$ and $ N$. Let $ AB$ be the line tangent to these circles at $ A$ and $ B$, respectively, so that $ M$ lies closer to $ AB$ than $ N$. Let $ CD$ be the line parallel to $ AB$ and passing through the point $ M$, with $ C$ on $ G_1$ and $ D$ on $ G_2$. Lines $ AC$ and $ BD$ meet at $ E$; lines $ AN$ and $ CD$ meet at $ P$; lines $ BN$ and $ CD$ meet at $ Q$. Show that $ EP = EQ$.

The function $f: \mathbb{Z}_{>0} \times \mathbb{Z}_{>0} \to \mathbb{Z}_{>0}$ is such that $f(a,b) + f(b,c) = f(ac, b^2) + 1$ for any positive integers $a,b,c$. Assume there exists a positive integer $n$ such that $f(n, m) \leq f(n, m + 1)$ for all positive integers $m$. Determine all possible values of $f(2025, 2025)$.

A magician has one hundred cards numbered 1 to 100

Source: IMO 2000, Problem 4, IMO Shortlist 2000, C1
A magician has one hundred cards numbered 1 to 100. He puts them into three boxes, a red one, a white one and a blue one, so that each box contains at least one card. A member of the audience draws two cards from two different boxes and announces the sum of numbers on those cards. Given this information, the magician locates the box from which no card has been drawn.

How many ways are there to put the cards in the three boxes so that the trick works?

Let $ABC$ be an isosceles triangle ($AB=AC$) with incenter $I$. Circle $\omega$ passes through $C$ and $I$ and is tangent to $AI$. $\omega$ intersects $AC$ and circumcircle of $ABC$ at $Q$ and $D$, respectively. Let $M$ be the midpoint of $AB$ and $N$ be the midpoint of $CQ$. Prove that $AD$, $MN$ and $BC$ are concurrent.
