# Task 7.1 A sheet of paper has the shape of a circle. Is it possible to draw five segments on it, each connecting two points on the boundary of the sheet, such that among the parts into which these segments divide the sheet, there is a pentagon and two quadrilaterals? ## Number of points 7 Answer: ## possible #
# Solution For example, see the figure. Two quadrilaterals and a pentagon are shaded gray. ![](https://cdn.mathpix.com/cropped/2024_05_06_daa24a2024b4bcb39a05g-1.jpg?height=291&width=286&top_left_y=2119&top_left_x=197) #

# Task 7.2 There are 30 logs, the lengths of which are 3 or 4 meters, and their total length is one hundred meters. How many cuts are needed to saw all these logs into pieces 1 meter long? (Each cut saws exactly one log). Points 7 #
# Answer: 70 ## Solution ## First Method The total length of the logs is 100 meters. If it were a single log, 99 cuts would be needed. Since there are 30 logs, 29 cuts have already been made. Therefore, another $99-29=70$ cuts are needed. ## Second Method Let's find the number of logs of each type. If all the log...

# 1. CONDITION Is there such an $x$ that the values of the expressions $x+\sqrt{2}$ and $x^{3}+\sqrt{2}$ are rational numbers?
Solution. Suppose the required $x$ is found. Then $x+\sqrt{2}=a-$ a rational number. From this, it follows that $x=a-\sqrt{2}$. But then $x^{3}+\sqrt{2}=(a-\sqrt{2})^{3}+\sqrt{2}=a^{3}-3 \sqrt{2} a^{2}+6 a-2 \sqrt{2}+\sqrt{2}=a^{3}+6 a-\left(3 a^{2}+1\right) \sqrt{2}$. This number is rational only if $3 a^{2}+1=0-$ a c...

Substituting $x_{0}$ into the equations and subtracting one from the other, we get $$ \begin{gathered} (a-b) x_{0}+b^{2}-a^{2}=0, \\ \text { hence } x_{0}=a+b . \text { Therefore, } \\ (a+b)^{2}+a(a+b)+b^{2}=0, \text { which means, }...

# 3. CONDITION In a plane, there are $\mathrm{n}$ identical gear wheels arranged such that the first is engaged with the second, the second with the third, and so on, finally, the last n-th wheel is engaged with the first. Can the wheels in such a system rotate?
Solution. Any two adjacent wheels rotate in opposite directions, meaning that the first and last wheels also have opposite directions of rotation, which is possible if and only if the number of wheels is even. Thus, the wheels of such a system can rotate if the number of wheels is even, and cannot in the opposite case.

Solution. Point $E$ is the midpoint of arc $AB$, so $AE = BE$. Moreover, inscribed angles $CAE$ and $EBD$, subtending the same arc, are equal. Given that $AC = BD$, triangles $ACE$ and $BDE$ are congruent, which implies that angle $CEA$ is equal to angle $BED$. Therefore, angle $DEC$ is equal to angle $BEA$ and both ar...

11.2. $\left(a_{n}\right)$ is an arithmetic progression with a common difference of 1. It is known that $\mathrm{S}_{2022}$ is the smallest among all $S_{n}$ (less than the sum of the first $n$ terms for any other value of $n$). What values can the first term of the progression take?
Answer: $a_{1}$ belongs to the interval (-2022; -2021). Solution. Since the difference of the progression is positive, the progression is increasing. Therefore, the described situation is possible if and only if the members of the progression from the first to the 2022nd are negative, and starting from the 2023rd, the...

Solution. Draw the diameter $B T$ in the circle $\Gamma$ (see Fig. 1). Note that $\angle P D T = \angle B D T = 90^{\circ}$. Therefore, $\angle P H T + \angle P D T = 180^{\circ}$, which means that point $T$ lies on the circle $\omega$. Hence, $\angle P Q T = \angle P H T = 90^{\circ}$, and the quadrilateral $P Q T D$ ...

Answer. Zero. They did not germinate. Solution. Daisies make up $5 / 6$ of all the flowers, and dandelions make up $1/6$. Therefore, their total number equals the total number of flowers. Criteria. Only the answer - 0 points. Complete solution - 7 points.

Then Anatoly's age is $\overline{b a}=10 b+a, \mathbf{and} a>b$. We have $(10 a+b)^{2}-(10 b+a)^{2}=9 \cdot 11(a+b)(a-b)$. This difference is a square of an integer,...

First, he found the product of the numbers in each column, and then for each of the eighteen products, he calculated the sum of the digits. Could all the resulting sums be the same?
Answer: No. Solution. Suppose that each of the specified digit sums is equal to S. Since some of the products contain factors that are multiples of nine, such products are divisible by 9, meaning their digit sum is also divisible by 9. Therefore, the number $S$ must be a multiple of nine. Thus, the product of the num...

10.2. How many rectangular trapezoids $A B C D$ exist, where angles $A$ and $B$ are right angles, $A D=2$, $C D=B C$, the sides have integer lengths, and the perimeter is less than 100?
Answer: 5. Solution. Let $C D=B C=a, A B=b$. Drop a perpendicular from point $D$ to $B C$, and apply the Pythagorean theorem: $(a-2)^{2}+b^{2}=a^{2}$. From this, $b^{2}=4(a-1), a=\frac{b^{2}}{4}+1$. Suppose $A D=2$ is the smaller base of the trapezoid. The perimeter $P=2 a+b+2a$, so $b>2$. Considering that $a=\frac{b^...

10.3. In a bag, there are chips of two colors, blue and green. The probability of drawing two chips of the same color is equal to the probability of drawing two chips of different colors (drawing one chip after another without replacement). It is known that there are more blue chips than green chips, and the total numb...
Answer: $3,6,10,15,21,28$. Solution. Let the number of blue chips be $n$, and the number of green chips be $-m$. Then $\frac{n m+m n}{(n+m)(n+m-1)}=\frac{n(n-1)+m(m-1)}{(n+m)(n+m-1)}$, or $2 n m=n(n-1)+m(m-1)$, from which $(n-m)^{2}=n+m$. Thus, the total number of chips (denote it as $a$) must be a perfect square, tha...

Answer: $\pm \sqrt{2}$. Solution. Express $b$ and $c$ from the equations, we get $b=\frac{2}{d-a}, c=\frac{d a-2}{a}$. Hence, $b+\frac{2}{c}=\frac{2}{d-a}+\frac{2 a}{d a-2}=d$. Bring to a common denominator: $2(d a-2)+2 a(d-a)=d(d-a)(d a-2)$, or $2 d a-4-2 a^{2}-d^{3} a+a^{2} d^{2}+2 d^{2}=0$. Group the first term wit...

It is clear that \(x\) can take any value from 1 to \(a-1\), and \(y\) is automatically determined by the condition. Thus, the number of solutions to the equation \(x + y = a\) is \...
