43. On a circle tangent to the sides of an angle with vertex $O$, two diametrically opposite points $A$ and $B$ (different from the points of tangency) are chosen. The tangent to the circle at point $B$ intersects the sides of the angle at points $C$ and $D$, and the line $O A-$ at point $E$. Prove that $B C = D E$. | 84.43. Consider the case when the circle is located outside the triangle \(OCD\) (see Fig. 59). Let \(C'\) and \(D'\) be the points of intersection of the sides of the angle with the tangent to the circle at point \(A\), so that the circle is inscribed in the triangle \(OC'D'\).

46. Prove that if the sum of the planar angles at the vertex of a pyramid is greater than $180^{\circ}$, then each lateral edge of the pyramid is less than half the perimeter of its base. | 84.46. Let $S A_{1} A_{2} \ldots A_{n}$ be a given pyramid. Cut its lateral surface along the longest edge, for example, $S A_{1}$, and unfold it onto a plane. From the condition, it follows that the point $S$ lies inside the polygon $A_{1} A_{2} \ldots A_{n} A_{1}^{\prime}$.

47. An integer $a$ is such that the number $3a$ can be expressed as $x^{2}+2y^{2}$, where $x$ and $y$ are integers. Prove that the number $a$ can also be expressed in this form. | 84.47. Consider the identity

a=\frac{3 a}{3}=\frac{x^{2}+2 y^{2}}{3}=\left(\frac{x \pm 2 y}{3}\right)^{2}+2\left(\frac{x \mp 2 y}{3}\right)^{2}

It is clear that the numbers $x$ and $y$ are either both divisible by three or not (in the first case, the proof is obvious). If their remainders when divided by three ... | proof | Number Theory | proof | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false | 37,169 |

Prove that the number $a^{5}+b^{5}+c^{5}+d^{5}+e^{5}-5 a b c d e$ is also divisible by $n$. | 84.51. Consider the polynomial $P(x)=(x-a)(x-b)(x-c) \times$ $\times(x-d)(x-e) . \quad$ Let $P(x)=x^{5}+p x^{4}+q x^{3}+r x^{2}+s x+t$. Then, by Vieta's theorem, we have $p=-(a+b+c+d+e), q=$ $=\left((a+b+c+d+e)^{2}-\left(a^{2}+b^{2}+c^{2}+d^{2}+e^{2}\right)\right) / 2$, and both these numbers are divisible by $n$.

52. In the sequence $1,0,1,0,1,0, \ldots$ each term, starting from the seventh, is equal to the last digit of the sum of the previous 112 six terms. Prove that in this sequence, the six numbers $0,1,0,1,0,1$ do not appear consecutively.

Consider the function $S(a, b, c, d, e, f)=$ $=2 a+4 b+6 c+8 d+10 e+12 f$. The last digits of the numbers $S\left(x_{1}, \ldots, x_{6}\right)$ and $S\left(x_{2}, \ldots, x_{7}\right)$ coincide - check this.

Let's divide 68 coins into 34 pairs and compare the coins in pairs. Then, among the 34 heavier coins, we will find the heaviest coin in 33 weighings, and among the 34 lighter coins, we will find the lightest coin in 33 weighings. | 100 | Logic and Puzzles | math-word-problem | Yes | Yes | olympiads | false | 37,172 |
3. A traveler sets out from their hometown $A$ to the farthest city in the country - city $B$; then from $B$ to the farthest city from it - city $C$, and so on. Prove that if $C$ and $A$ are different cities, the traveler will never return home. | 85.3. It is clear that the distance between $B$ and $C$ is greater than the distance between $B$ and $A$ - otherwise, the traveler would have returned to $A$. Similarly, the next city is at least as far from $C$ as $B$ is, and so on.

11. Three grasshoppers are sitting on a line. They start playing leapfrog, jumping over each other (but not over two at once). Can they end up in their original positions after 1985 jumps? | 85.11. Let's denote these grasshoppers as $A, B$, and $C$. There are six possible arrangements of them on a line (from left to right): $A B C, B C A, C A B, A C B, B A C, C B A$. We will call the first three arrangements correct, and the remaining three incorrect.
