Therefore, k 4 = 10 k =14. x y = 1 ) Squaring both sides of 1 5i = x + yi, xy = 5. x + y = 13 Where did this third equation come from? We could have solved the second equation for y in terms of x and substituted in the first, but adding the first and third will be much easier. onsider 1 5i - the absolute value of the radicand. s on the real number line, the absolute value of a complex number is its distance from the origin O ( 0,0 ). Let x + yi be represented by the point P ( xy, ) in the complex plane and we have regardless of the quadrant in which P is located. Extracting, ( ) ( ) x + yi = OP = x + y, = = 169 = 13 (or recall the Pythagorean Triple ) Thus, adding the first and third equations and dividing by, x = =. 4 1 x Subtracting the same equations, y = 1 y =. Thus, = 50. Note that: 4 4 y 1 5i denotes either 5 i or 5 + i. In both cases, xy = 5 and x y = 1. ) Simply! Simplify! Simplify! Recall: ( ) ± = ± ± Thus, in the expansion, the first and third terms cancel i i = 6 i i = 3 i. Therefore, ( ) ( ) ( ) ( 3 3 3i) ( i) Since = 3 and = 1, we have 3 3 Thus, ( ) 3 = 3 x + y = 4 = 64.

Taking the smallest exponents of the common factors, The numerical component is (3) = 6 and the literal component is x z 3. Therefore, the GF is 6x z 3. ) Since the product is not equal to zero, the factorization does not help. Multiplying out the left side and combining like terms, we have ( 3x+ 4)( 8x 5) = 3 4x + 17x+ 3 = 0. Since the coefficient of the middle term is odd, the factors of 4 cannot both be even, leaving only possibilities of 4 1 or 8 3. If these fail, we would have to use the quadratic formula and none of the solutions would be rational. Since 4x + 17x+ 3 = (8x+ 3)(3x+ 1) = 0 and we have rational solutions, namely, 3 1 x =, 8 3. ) ( ) ( ) ( ) ( ) x x = 5 x + 4 x x x 4 = 0 ( x ) ( x ) ( x )( x ) 5 4 = = 0 x = +8 or x = 3

10 ONTEST NOVEMER 014 SOLUTION KEY Round 5 ) The value of the fraction is undefined only when the denominator is zero, or when one of the trig functions is undefined. We do not consider values of x for which the numerator is zero, namely 45, since for this value the denominator is not 0. 1 sin x 1 = 0 sin x= x=30,150 cos x= 0 x=90 (lso, tan x is undefined for x = 90.) tan x 3 = 0 tan x=± 3 x=60,10 ) Since sin( x) = sin(x) and sin( x) = sin(x), it follows that f ( x) = sin( x) sin( x) = sin( x) sin( x) = f ( x).

F E 1 m F = 114 = 38 m M = 19 3 m = m M = = 71 M ) Since the measure of the exterior angle equals the sum of the measures of the two remote interior angles, we have (6x+ 7) + (8x 9) = x + 46 x 14x+ 48 = ( x 6)( x 8) = 0. For x = 8, m = m = 55 and is isosceles. This solution is rejected. For x = 6, m = 43, m = 39, and m = 180 ( ) = 98 and is scalene.

In 014, his birthday fell on a Wednesday. On what day of the week did his birthday fall in 1898, the year he was born? Recall that there are 365 days in a year, except in leap years. The extra day (/9) is added only in non-century years divisible by 4 and in century years divisible by 400. ) Given: Trapezoid with and (,,, M) = (30, 87, 51, 4) n isosceles trapezoid PQRS has the same perimeter as, sides of integer length and an altitude equal in length to the altitude of. ompute all possible areas of trapezoid PQRS. ) In each of the squares below, consider the lattice points within the triangular regions marked I and II.

There is one real value of N in every block of four consecutive k-values. If k is a multiple of 4, N is real. N is real for k = 1, 16,., 96, or 4(3, 4,, 4). Thus, we have a total of different values of k. k + is real. ) 7 days before (or after) a given date will fall on the same day of the week. Since 365 = , a non-leap year consists of 5 weeks and 1 day. Therefore, from year to year, a given date advances 1 day of the week (OW), unless /9 falls between the two dates. Moving back in time, starting in 014, consider the following sequence: WE TUE MON ST FRI THU WE MON SUN ST FRI Since /9 falls between 3/011 and 3/01 and between 3/007 and 3/008, the day of the week changes by days. Over a 4 year period, OW changes by 5 days, unless the 4 year period spans a century year which is not divisible by 400 (like the year 1900). Therefore, 11 years ago (8 4-year periods), in 190, the OW has cycled through 8 5 = 140 days. Since 140 is divisible by 7, in 190, his birthday fell on the same OW, namely Wednesday. Since none of the remaining 4 intervening years were leap years, the OW changes only by 4 days. In 1898, his birthday fell on a ST. You are invited to apply Zeller s formula to his actual birthdate 3/5/1898 to confirm this result. 13m 1 y c z = d + y c 5 4 4, where d denotes the day (1..31) m denotes the month according to the following funky rule: 1 = March = pril 10 = ecember and January and February are assigned 11 and 1 respectively for the previous year c denotes the "century" in which the date falls (YYYY) y denotes the year ( YYYY), i.e Now, divide z by 7.

The primitive triples 1) through 6) above were generated by (m, n) = (, 1), (3, ), (4, 3), (4,1) and (1, 1). From the list above, the possible values of y + c are: 48 for (y, c) = (18, 30), 7 for (y, c) = (3, 40), 36 for (y, c) = (10, 6), 3 for (y, c) = (7, 5), 96 for (y, c) = (45, 51) rejected ( x = 0) 88 for (y, c) = (143, 145) also rejected x = 96 (y + c) the allowable values of x are: 48, 4, 60, 64 Thus, the allowable corresponding values of (x, y) are: (48, 18), (4, 3), (60, 10) and (64, 7) Since the area(pqrs) = 4(x + y), we have , 1344, 1680,
