10.4. A circle is inscribed in a triangle. Prove that the triangle formed by the points of tangency is acute.
Solution: We will prove the lemma. Let a circle with center at point $O$ be inscribed in an angle with vertex $A$ and let it touch the sides of the angle at points $M$ and $N$. Then $\angle M N O=\angle N M O=\frac{\angle N A M}{2}$ - see the figure. ![](https://cdn.mathpix.com/cropped/2024_05_06_1501881448231e919664g-...

10.5. We will call a natural number semi-prime if it is greater than 25 and is the sum of two distinct prime numbers. What is the maximum number of consecutive natural numbers that can be semi-prime? Justify your answer.
Solution: There are many sets of five consecutive semiprime numbers, for example $30(=13+17), 31(=2+29), 32(=3+29), 33(=2+31), 34$ $(=5+29)$ or $102(=5+97), 103(=2+101), 104(=31+73), 105(=2+103)$, $106(=47+59)$. We will show that there are no six consecutive semiprime numbers. Indeed, among any six consecutive numbers...

10.6. Ali-baba came to a cave where there was gold and diamonds. Ali-baba had one large bag with him. It is known that a full bag of gold weighs 200 kg, and if the entire bag is filled with diamonds, it will weigh 40 kg (the empty bag weighs nothing). A kilogram of gold costs 20 dinars, and a kilogram of diamonds costs...
# Solution: Method 1. Let Ali-Baba have placed a set of gold and diamonds that gives him the maximum possible revenue - we will call such a bag optimal. Then either the bag is filled to the brim, or it weighs exactly 100 kg: otherwise, more diamonds could be added to it and the revenue would increase. Consider the fir...

Answer: 9 segments. Solution. First, we prove that all 10 segments cannot have a length of 1. Assume the opposite. Let $A B C D E$ be a pentagon, $O$ be a point inside it, and all 10 drawn segments have a length of 1 (see Fig. 6). Then triangles $O A B, O B C$, $O C D, O D E$, and $O E A$ are equilateral, so $\angle A...

Solution. Since $\angle A B C=135^{\circ}$, then $\angle A O C=90^{\circ}$. Since $O M$ is the median in the right triangle $A O C$, we have $O M=A M=M C$.

Answer: 18. Solution. If you choose 18 coins, then among them there will be no more than 10 lying heads down, so at least 8 coins will be lying heads up. Among these coins, no more than 7 will be five-ruble coins, so at least one will be a ten-ruble coin, which is what we need. On the other hand, if initially on the ...

11.2. The numbers $x$ and $y$ satisfy the inequality $x>y>\frac{2}{x-y}$. Prove that $x^{2}>y^{2}+4$.
Solution. By adding the inequalities $x>\frac{2}{x-y}$ and $y>\frac{2}{x-y}$, we get that $x+y>\frac{4}{x-y}$. From the condition $x>y$, it follows that the denominator of the fractions is positive, so we can multiply by it without changing the inequality sign. Then we get: $(x+y)(x-y)>4$, that is, $x^{2}-y^{2}>4$. Th...

Answer: Incorrect. Solution. Note that the product of five consecutive natural numbers $n(n+1)(n+2)(n+3)(n+4)$ is divisible by 5. Let's consider several cases. If $m$ has a remainder of 0, 3, or 4 when divided by 5, then $m(m+1)(m+2)$ is divisible by 5. If $m$ has a remainder of 1 when divided by 5, then $m(m+1)(m+2...

Answer: No. Solution: Suppose the table could be filled in the required manner. Consider in each row the three numbers: two multipliers and their product. Mark the smallest multiplier in each row.

We can see that 1457, when divided by 9, gives a remainder of 8, so $x=1$. Then $9 n+45-1=1457$ $9 n=1413$. $n=157$. $n+x=158$.

If the remaining part of the board can be tiled with $1 \times 2$ rectangles, then it contains an equal number of black and white cells, so 3 tokens are on black cells, and 3 on white cells. Note that for a white c...

4. Through the vertex $B$ of the rectangle $A B C D$, two perpendicular lines are drawn. One line intersects the side $A D$ at point $K$, and the other line intersects the extension of side $C D$ at point $L$. The lines $K L$ and $A C$ intersect at point $F$. Prove that the quadrilateral $A B F K$ can be inscribed in a...
Solution. Since $\angle A B K=\angle A B L-\angle K B L=\angle A B L-90^{\circ}=\angle A B L-$ $\angle A B C=\angle C B L$, the right triangles $A B K$ and $C B L$ are similar. From this, $\frac{A B}{B C}=\frac{B K}{B L}$, then $\frac{A B}{B K}=\frac{B C}{B L}$ and the right triangles $A B C$ and $K B L$ are also simil...

5. Let $f(x)=x^{3}+a x^{2}+b x+c$, where $a, b$ and $c$ are distinct non-zero integers. For which $a, b$ and $c$ do the equalities $f(a)=a^{3}$ and $f(b)=b^{3}$ hold?
Answer: $a=-2, b=4, c=16$. Solution. The equalities $f(a)=a^{3}$ and $f(b)=b^{3}$ give us the equalities $a^{3}+a b+c=0$ and $a b^{2}+b^{2}+$ $c=0$. Subtracting one from the other, we get $(a+1) b^{2}-a b-a^{3}=0$. This expression can be factored as $$ (a+1) b^{2}-a b-a^{3}=(b-a)\left((a+1) b+a^{2}\right)=0 $$ Since...

Solution. We fill the 5-liter bucket with milk and pour it into the bucket. Then we fill the 5-liter bucket again, pour it into the 9-liter bucket, fill the 5-liter bucket once more, and pour the missing 4 liters into the 9-liter bucket.

Solution. $\frac{2 n^{2}-2}{n^{3}-n}=\frac{2(n-1)(n+1)}{n(n-1)(n+1)}$. For $n \neq \pm 1$, this expression is identically equal to $\frac{2}{n}$. Since $n \neq 1$, the value of the last expression is a natural number only when $n=2$. Answer: $n=2$.

Answer: 13.5. Solution. Since the width of the two resulting strips is the same, their areas are in the ratio of their lengths, i.e., $9: 7$. Let $S$ be the area covered by both strips. Then $\frac{27+S}{18+S}=\frac{9}{7}$, from which we get $7 \cdot(27+S)=9 \cdot(18+S)$. Solving this linear equation, we get $S=13.5$.
