Welcome to the Fall Problem Set! There are problems,
multiple-choice, and
free-response.
Problem 1
Larry is playing a logic game. In this game, Larry counts , and removes the number
for every
th move, skipping
for
, and then increments
by one. If
starts at
, what is
when Larry counts his
th integer? Assume
Problem 2
Let be a right triangle with right angle at
, and
. Let
denote the intersection of the cevian dropped from
onto
such that
. If the reflection of point
across
lies on the circumcircle of
as
,
, and the circumradius of
is an integer, find the smallest possible value of
.
Problem 8
Find
