The Euclid is a contest administered by the Center for Education in Mathematics and Computing(CEMC). Euclid is considered one of the most competitive, high-reputative competition in Canada along with the Canadian Senior Mathematics Competition(CSMC) and Canadian Open Mathematics Challenge(COMC). It is recommended for grades 7 to 12, as well as recommended for University of Waterloo.
Contents
Format
This is a 150-minute, 100-point competition that consists of 10 written problems, each problem with multiple sub-problems. On the left side of each sub-problem, there will be one image, either "light bulb" or "paper/pencil"
- Questions marked with the "light bulb" means that the sub-problem is short answers and counts 2-3 points within the problem's 10 points. Partial marks may be awarded if work is shown.
- Questions marked with "paper/pencil" means that the sub-problem counts as the rest of the points of the problem's 10 points, and must be a written solution.
Curriculum
The Euclid covers topics similar to the AMC 10. These include geometry, trigonometry, algebra, number theory, counting, probability, and arithmetic.
