Hey how did you get to this page? If you aren't me then I have to say hello. If you are me then I must be pretty conceited to waste my time looking at my own page. If you aren't me, seriously, how did you get to this page? This is pretty cool. Well, nice meeting you! I'm going to stop wasting my time typing this up and do some math. Gtg. Bye.
Here's the AIME compilation I will be doing:

[hide]Problem 3
Let be a regular and be a regular such that each interior angle of is as large as each interior angle of . What's the largest possible value of ?
Problem 5
Given a rational number, write it as a fraction in lowest terms and calculate the product of the resulting numerator and denominator. For how many rational numbers between 0 and 1 will be the resulting product?
Problem 4
In Pascal's Triangle, each entry is the sum of the two entries above it. In which row of Pascal's Triangle do three consecutive entries occur that are in the ratio ?
Problem 9
Suppose that and that where is in lowest terms. Find
Problem 8
For any sequence of real numbers , define to be the sequence , whose term is . Suppose that all of the terms of the sequence are , and that . Find .
Problem 7
Three numbers, , , , are drawn randomly and without replacement from the set . Three other numbers, , , , are then drawn randomly and without replacement from the remaining set of 997 numbers. Let be the probability that, after a suitable rotation, a brick of dimensions can be enclosed in a box of dimensions , with the sides of the brick parallel to the sides of the box. If is written as a fraction in lowest terms, what is the sum of the numerator and denominator?
Problem 12
Let be a tetrahedron with , , , , , and , as shown in the figure. Let be the distance between the midpoints of edges and . Find .
Problem 11
Twelve congruent disks are placed on a circle of radius 1 in such a way that the twelve disks cover , no two of the disks overlap, and so that each of the twelve disks is tangent to its two neighbors. The resulting arrangement of disks is shown in the figure below. The sum of the areas of the twelve disks can be written in the form , where are positive integers and is not divisible by the square of any prime. Find .
Problem 12
Rhombus is inscribed in rectangle so that vertices , , , and are interior points on sides , , , and , respectively. It is given that , , , and . Let , in lowest terms, denote the perimeter of . Find .
Problem 10
Euler's formula states that for a convex polyhedron with vertices, edges, and faces, . A particular convex polyhedron has 32 faces, each of which is either a triangle or a pentagon. At each of its vertices, triangular faces and pentagonal faces meet. What is the value of ?
Problem 13
Let be a subset of such that no two members of differ by or . What is the largest number of elements can have?
Problem 14
Given a positive integer , it can be shown that every complex number of the form , where and are integers, can be uniquely expressed in the base using the integers as digits. That is, the equation
is true for a unique choice of non-negative integer and digits chosen from the set , with . We write
to denote the base expansion of . There are only finitely many integers that have four-digit expansions
Find the sum of all such .
Problem 14
The rectangle below has dimensions and . Diagonals and intersect at . If triangle is cut out and removed, edges and are joined, and the figure is then creased along segments and , we obtain a triangular pyramid, all four of whose faces are isosceles triangles. Find the volume of this pyramid.
Problem 15
Define a positive integer to be a factorial tail if there is some positive integer such that the decimal representation of ends with exactly zeroes. How many positive integers less than are not factorial tails?
Problem 14
A rectangle that is inscribed in a larger rectangle (with one vertex on each side) is called unstuck if it is possible to rotate (however slightly) the smaller rectangle about its center within the confines of the larger. Of all the rectangles that can be inscribed unstuck in a 6 by 8 rectangle, the smallest perimeter has the form , for a positive integer . Find .
