Tiebreaker Questions

Problem TB1

The sum of the digits of an integer is equal to the sum of the digits of three times that integer. Prove that the integer is a multiple of 9.

Solution

Problem TB2

Factor completely over integer coefficients the polynomial $p(x)=x^8+x^5+x^4+x^3+x+1$. Demonstrate that your factorization is complete.

Solution

Problem TB3

4014 boys and 4014 girls stand in a line holding hands, such that only the two people at the ends are not holding hands with exactly two people (an ordinary line of people). One of the two people at the ends gets tired of the hand-holding fest and leaves. Then, from the remaining line, one of the two people at the ends leaves. Then another from an end, and then another, and another. This continues until exactly half of the people from the original line remain. Prove that no matter what order the original 8028 people were standing in, that it is possible that exactly 2007 of the remaining people are girls.

Solution

Problem TB4

Circle $O$ is the circumcircle of non-isosceles triangle $ABC$. The tangent lines to circle $O$ at points $B$ and $C$ intersect at $L_a$, and the tangents at $A$ and $C$ intersect at $L_b$. The external angle bisectors of triangle $ABC$ at $B$ and $C$ meet at $I_a$ and the external bisectors at $A$ and $C$ intersect at $I_b$. Prove that lines $L_aI_a$, $L_bI_b$, and $AB$ are concurrent.
