| |
− | ===Problem 1===
| |
− | There is one and only one perfect square in the form
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>(p^2+1)(q^2+1)-((pq)^2-pq+1)</cmath>
| |
− |
| |
− | where <math>p</math> and <math>q</math> is prime. Find that perfect square.
| |
− |
| |
− | ===Solution 1===
| |
− | <math>(p^2+1)(q^2+1)-((pq)^2-pq+1)=p^2 \cdot q^2 +p^2+q^2+1-p^2 \cdot q^2 +pq-1=p^2+q^2+pq</math>.
| |
− | Suppose <math>n^2=(p^2+1)(q^2+1)-((pq)^2-pq+1)</math>.
| |
− | Then,
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>n^2=(p^2+1)(q^2+1)-((pq)^2-pq+1)=p^2+q^2+pq=(p+q)^2-pq \implies pq=(p+q)^2-n^2=(p+q-n)(p+q+n)</cmath>
| |
− |
| |
− | , so since <math>n=\sqrt{p^2+q^2+pq}>\sqrt{p^2+q^2}</math>, <math>n>p,n>q</math> so <math>p+q-n</math> is less than both <math>p</math> and <math>q</math> and thus we have <math>p+q-n=1</math> and <math>p+q+n=pq</math>. Adding them gives <math>2p+2q=pq+1</math> so by [[Simon's Favorite Factoring Trick]], <math>(p-2)(q-2)=3 \implies (p,q)=(3,5)</math> in some order. Hence, <math>(p^2+1)(q^2+1)-((pq)^2-pq+1)=p^2+q^2+pq=\boxed{049}</math>.<math>\square</math>
| |
− |
| |
− | ===Problem 2===
| |
− | <math>m</math> and <math>n</math> are positive integers. If <math>m^2=2^8+2^{11}+2^n</math>, find <math>m+n</math>.
| |
− | ===Solution 1 (Slow, probably official MAA)===
| |
− | <cmath>m^2=2^8+2^{11}+2^n</cmath>
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>\implies 2^n=m^2-2^8-2^{11}</cmath>
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>\implies 2^n=(m+48)(m-48)</cmath>
| |
− |
| |
− | Let <math>m+48=2^t</math> and <math>m-48=2^s</math>. Then,
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>2^t-2^s=96 \implies 2^s(2^{t-s}-1)=2^5 \cdot 3 \implies 2^{t-s}-1=3,2^s=2^5 \implies (t,s)=(7,5) \implies m+n=80+12=\boxed{092}</cmath> <math>\square</math>
| |
− |
| |
− | ===Solution 2 (Fast)===
| |
− | Recall that a perfect square <math>(a + b)^2</math> can be written as <math>a^2 + 2ab + b^2</math>. Since <math>m^2</math> is a perfect square, the RHS must be in this form. We substitute <math>2^4</math> for <math>a</math> to get that <math>2^8 + 2^5 \cdot 2^b + 2^{2b} = m^2</math>. To make the middle term have an exponent of <math>11</math>, we must have <math>b = 6</math>. Then <math>n = 12</math> and <math>m = (2^4 + 2^6)^2 = (16 + 64)^2 = 80^2</math>, so <math>m + n = \boxed{092}</math>.

− | ~ cxsmi
| |
− |
| |
− | ===Solution 3 (Faster)===
| |
− | Calculating the terms on the RHS, we find that <math>256 + 2048 + 2^n = 2304 + 2^n = m^2</math>. We use trial-and-error to find a power of two that makes the RHS a perfect square. We find that <math>4096 = 2^{12}</math> works, and it produces <math>6400 = 80^2</math>. Then <math>m + n = \boxed{092}</math>.

− | ===Problem 3===
| |
− | The fraction,
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>\frac{ab+bc+ac}{(a+b+c)^2}</cmath>
| |
− |
| |
− | where <math>a,b</math> and <math>c</math> are side lengths of a triangle, lies in the interval <math>(p,q]</math>, where <math>p</math> and <math>q</math> are rational numbers. Then, <math>p+q</math> can be expressed as <math>\frac{r}{s}</math>, where <math>r</math> and <math>s</math> are relatively prime positive integers. Find <math>r+s</math>.
| |
− | ===Solution 1(Probably official MAA, lots of proofs)===
| |
− | '''Lemma 1: <math>\text{max} (\frac{ab+bc+ac}{(a+b+c)^2})=\frac{1}{3}</math>'''
| |
− |
| |
− | ''Proof:'' Since the sides of triangles have positive length, <math>a,b,c>0</math>. Hence,
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>\frac{ab+bc+ac}{(a+b+c)^2}>0 \implies \text{max} (\frac{ab+bc+ac}{(a+b+c)^2})= \frac{1}{\text{min} (\frac{(a+b+c)^2}{ab+bc+ac})}</cmath>
| |
− |
| |
− | , so now we just need to find <math>\text{min} (\frac{(a+b+c)^2}{ab+bc+ac})</math>.
| |
− |
| |
− | Since <math>(a-c)^2+(b-c)^2+(a-b)^2 \ge 0</math> by the [[Trivial Inequality]], we have
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>a^2-2ac+c^2+b^2-2bc+c^2+a^2-2ab+b^2 \ge 0</cmath>
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>\implies a^2+b^2+c^2 \ge ac+bc+ab</cmath>
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>\implies a^2+b^2+c^2+2(ac+bc+ab) \ge 3(ac+bc+ab)</cmath>
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>\implies (a+b+c)^2 \ge 3(ac+bc+ab)</cmath>
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>\implies \frac{(a+b+c)^2}{ab+bc+ac} \ge 3</cmath>
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>\implies \frac{ab+bc+ac}{(a+b+c)^2} \le \frac{1}{3}</cmath>
| |
− |
| |
− | as desired. <math>\square</math>
| |
− |
| |
− | To show that the minimum value is achievable, we see that if <math>a=b=c</math>, <math>\frac{ab+bc+ac}{(a+b+c)^2}=\frac{1}{3}</math>, so the minimum is thus achievable.
| |
− |
| |
− | Thus, <math>q=\frac{1}{3}</math>.
| |
− |
| |
− | '''Lemma 2: <math>\frac{ab+bc+ac}{(a+b+c)^2}>\frac{1}{4}</math>'''
| |
− |
| |
− | ''Proof:'' By the [[Triangle Inequality]], we have
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>a+b>c</cmath>
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>b+c>a</cmath>
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>a+c>b</cmath>.
| |
− |
| |
− | Since <math>a,b,c>0</math>, we have
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>c(a+b)>c^2</cmath>
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>a(b+c)>a^2</cmath>
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>b(a+c)>b^2</cmath>.
| |
− |
| |
− | Add them together gives
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>a^2+b^2+c^2<c(a+b)+a(b+c)+b(a+c)=2(ab+bc+ac)</cmath>
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>\implies a^2+b^2+c^2+2(ab+bc+ac)<4(ab+bc+ac)</cmath>
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>\implies (a+b+c)^2<4(ab+bc+ac)</cmath>
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>\implies \frac{(a+b+c)^2}{ab+bc+ac}<4</cmath>
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>\implies \frac{ab+bc+ac}{(a+b+c)^2}>\frac{1}{4}</cmath> <math>\square</math>
| |
− |
| |
− | Even though unallowed, if <math>a=0,b=c</math>, then <math>\frac{ab+bc+ac}{(a+b+c)^2}=\frac{1}{4}</math>, so
| |
− |
| |
− | <cmath>\lim_{b=c,a \to 0} (\frac{ab+bc+ac}{(a+b+c)^2})=\frac{1}{4}</cmath>.
| |
− |
| |
− | Hence, <math>p=\frac{1}{4}</math>, since by taking <math>b=c</math> and <math>a</math> close <math>0</math>, we can get <math>\frac{ab+bc+ac}{(a+b+c)^2}</math> to be as close to <math>\frac{1}{4}</math> as we wish.
| |
− |
| |
− | <math>p+q=\frac{1}{3}+\frac{1}{4}=\frac{7}{12} \implies r+s=7+12=\boxed{019}</math> <math>\blacksquare</math>
| |
− |
| |
− | ===Solution 2 (Fast, risky, no proofs)===
| |
− | By the [[Principle of Insufficient Reason]], taking <math>a=b=c</math> we get either the max or the min. Testing other values yields that we got the max, so <math>q=\frac{1}{3}</math>.

− | Expand the denominator. We now have <math>\frac{ab + bc + ac}{a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + 2ab + 2ac + 2bc}</math>. Consider its reciprocal; if this expression takes values on the interval <math>(p,q]</math>, then its reciprocal will take values on the interval <math>[\frac{1}{q},\frac{1}{p})</math>. This is important because we can now write the reciprocal of the expression as <math>\frac{a^2 + b^2 + c^2}{ab + ac + bc} + 2</math>. We attempt to maximize and minimize <math>\frac{a^2 + b^2 + c^2}{ab + ac + bc}</math>. To maximize the expression, we consider the triangle inequality. From it, we find the following. <cmath>a + b > c</cmath> <cmath>a + c > b</cmath> <cmath>b + c > a</cmath> We rewrite. <cmath>ac + bc > c^2</cmath> <cmath>ab + bc > b^2</cmath> <cmath>ab + ac > a^2</cmath> Add all of the inequalities. We find the following. <cmath>2ab + 2ac + 2bc > a^2 + b^2 + c^2</cmath> Considering the equality case and plugging into the expression, we find that the maximum value of the expression is <math>4</math>. However, since this "equality case" cannot actually happen, this part of the interval must be open. Now, we minimize the inequality by using the Power Mean Inequality (specifically, the QM-AM part of the inequality). Considering the terms <math>a</math>, <math>b</math>, and <math>c</math>, we find the following. <cmath>\sqrt{\frac{a^2 + b^2 + c^2}{3}} \geq \frac{a + b + c}{3}</cmath> Square both sides. <cmath>\frac{a^2 + b^2 + c^2}{3} \geq \frac{a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + 2ab + 2ac + 2bc}{9}</cmath> Rewrite as follows. <cmath>3(a^2 + b^2 + c^2) \geq a^2 + b^2 + c^2 + 2ab + 2ac + 2bc</cmath> <cmath>2a^2 + 2b^2 + 2c^2 \geq 2ab + 2ac + 2bc</cmath> <cmath>a^2 + b^2 + c^2 \geq ab + ac + bc</cmath> Considering the equality case and plugging into the expression, we find that the minimum value of the expression is <math>3</math>. Since the expression (which we said was the reciprocal of the original expression) takes values on the interval <math>[3, 4)</math>, the original expression must take values on the interval <math>(\frac{1}{4}, \frac{1}{3}]</math>. Then <math>p + q = \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{3} = \frac{7}{12}</math>, so our final answer is <math>7 + 12 = \boxed{019}</math>.

− | ===Solution 1 (Recursion)===
| |
− | Let <math>M_n</math> be the minimum possible number <math>moves</math> that can transfer <math>n</math> rings onto the second peg. To build the recursion, we consider what is the minimum possible number <math>moves</math> that can transfer <math>n+1</math> rings onto the second peg. If we use only legal <math>moves</math>, then <math>n+1</math> will be smaller on the top, bigger on the bottom. Hence, the largest ring have to be at the bottom of the second peg, or the largest peg will have nowhere to go. In order for the largest ring to be at the bottom, we must first move the top <math>n</math> rings to the third peg using <math>M_n</math> <math>moves</math>, then place the largest ring onto the bottom of the second peg using <math>1</math> <math>move</math>, and then get all the rings from the third peg on top of the largest ring using another <math>M_n</math> <math>moves</math>. This gives a total of <math>2M_n+1</math>, hence we have <math>M_{n+1}=2M_{n}+1</math>. Obviously, <math>M_1=1</math>. We claim that <math>M_n=2^n-1</math>.

− | <cmath>M_{n+1}=2M_{n}+1=2(2^n-1)+1=2^{n+1}-1</cmath>

− | so this is true for <math>n+1</math>. Therefore, by [[induction]], <math>M_n=2^n-1</math> is true for all <math>n</math>. Now, <math>x=M_{192}=2^{192}-1</math>. Therefore, we see that

− | | |
− | so <math>x+1=\frac{2^{200}}{256}</math> is equivalent to the inverse of <math>256</math> in <math>\text{mod 125}</math>, which is equivalent to the inverse of <math>6</math> in <math>\text{mod 125}</math>, which, by inspection, is simply <math>21</math>. Hence,

Both <math>G</math> and <math>K</math> are on <math>\Omega</math> and line <math>O’G</math>, so <math>O’G</math> intersects <math>\Omega</math> at both <math>G</math> and <math>K</math>, and since we’re given <math>O’G</math> intersects <math>\Omega</math> at one distinct point, <math>G</math> and <math>K</math> are not distinct, hence they are the same point.
| |
− | | |
− | Now, if the center of <math>2</math> tangent circles are connected, the line segment will pass through the point of tangency. In this case, if we connect the center of <math>2</math> tangent circles, <math>\Omega</math> and <math>\Omega_1</math> (<math>O</math> and <math>I</math> respectively), it is going to pass through the point of tangency, namely, <math>K</math>, which is the same point as <math>G</math>, so <math>O</math>, <math>I</math>, and <math>G</math> are collinear. Hence, <math>G</math> and <math>I</math> are on both lines <math>OI</math> and <math>CI</math>, so <math>CI</math> passes through point <math>O</math>, making <math>CG</math> a diameter of <math>\Omega</math>.
| |
− | | |
− | Now we state a few claims :
| |
− | | |
− | '''Claim 1: <math>\Delta O’IO</math> is equilateral. '''
| |
− | | |
− | ''Proof:''
| |
− | | |
− | <cmath>\frac{3}{4} (IK+O’L)^2</cmath>
| |
− | | |
− | <cmath>=\frac{3}{4} IK^2+\frac{3}{2} IK \cdot O’L+\frac{3}{4} O’L^2</cmath>
| |
− | | |
− | <cmath>=IG^2+IG \cdot GC</cmath>
| |
− | | |
− | <cmath>=IG \cdot (IG+GC)</cmath>
| |
− | | |
− | <cmath>=IG \cdot IC</cmath>
| |
− | | |
− | <cmath>=IJ^2</cmath>
| |
− | | |
− | where the last equality holds by the [[Power of a Point Theorem]].
| |
− | | |
− | Taking the square root of each side yields <math>IJ= \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} (IK+O’L)^2</math>.
| |
− | | |
− | Since, by the definition of point <math>L</math>, <math>L</math> is on <math>\Omega_1</math>. Hence, <math>IK=IL</math>, so
| |
− | | |
− | <math>IJ= \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} (IK+O’L)^2=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} (IL+O’L)^2=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} IO’^2</math>, and since <math>O’</math> is the reflection of point <math>O</math> over line <math>IJ</math>, <math>OJ=O’J=\frac{OO’}{2}</math>, and since <math>IJ=\frac{\sqrt{3}}{2} IO’^2</math>, by the [[Pythagorean Theorem]] we have
| |
− | | |
− | <math>JO’=\frac{IO’}{2} \implies \frac{OO’}{2}=\frac{IO’}{2} \implies OO’=IO’</math>
| |
− | | |
− | Since <math>IJ</math> is the perpendicular bisector of <math>OO’</math>, <math>IO’=IO</math> and we have <math>IO=IO’=OO’</math> hence <math>\Delta O’IO</math> is equilateral. <math>\square</math>
| |
− | | |
− | With this in mind, we see that
| |
− | | |
− | <cmath>2OJ=OO’=OI=OK+KI=OJ+GI=OJ+AC \implies OA=OJ=AC</cmath>
| |
− | | |
− | Here, we state another claim :
| |
− | | |
− | '''Claim 2 : <math>BH</math> is a diameter of <math>\Omega</math>'''
| |
− | | |
− | ''Proof:'' Since <math>OA=OC=AC</math>, we have
| |
− | | |
− | <cmath>\angle AOC =60^\circ \implies \angle ABC=\frac{1}{2} \angle AOC=30^\circ \implies AB=\sqrt{3} AC</cmath>
| |
− | | |
− | and the same reasoning with <math>\Delta CAH</math> gives <math>CH=\sqrt{3} AC</math> since <math>AH=IG=AC</math>.
| |
− | | |
− | Now, apply [[Ptolemy’s Theorem]] gives
| |
− | | |
− | <cmath>BH \cdot AC+BC \cdot AH=CH \cdot AB \implies BH \cdot AC+AC^2=3AC^2 \implies BH=2AC=2OA</cmath>
| |
− | | |
− | so <math>BH</math> is a diameter. <math>\square</math>
| |
− | | |
− | From that, we see that <math>\angle BEH=90^\circ</math>, so <math>\frac{EH}{BH}=\cos{BHE}</math>. Now,
| |
− | | |
− | <cmath>\angle BHE=\angle BAE=\frac{1}{2} \angle CAB=15^\circ</cmath>
| |
− | | |
− | , so
| |
− | | |
− | <cmath>\frac{EH}{BH}=\cos{15}=\frac{\sqrt{6}+\sqrt{2}}{4}=\frac{\sqrt{2}}{4} (\sqrt{3}+1)</cmath>
| |
− | | |
− | , so
| |
− | | |
− | <cmath>a=4, b=2, c=3, d=1 \implies a^2+b^2+c^2+d^2+abcd=1+4+9+16+24=\boxed{054}</cmath>
| |
− | | |
− | , and we’re done. <math>\blacksquare</math>
