2 Answers to the 2006 IUPUI High School Mathematics Contest. The sum S n of the first n terms of the sequence a, a 2,... of positive real numbers satisfies the equation a n + a n = 2S n for n =, 2,.... Find a formula for the general term a n. Solution. Using the quadratic formula we can compute in turn a =, a 2 = 2, a 3 = 3 2 with partial sums S =, S 2 = 2, S 3 = 3. Hence we can conjecture that a n = and S n = n. We wish to show that n + = 2 n, n If we rationalize the fraction, n + n + n (n ) = 2 n 2. Let P be a point on the bisector of an angle BAC. Let l be any line passing through P. Assume that l intersects the rays AB and AC at X and Y, respectively. Show that the quantity + does not depend on the choice of l. Solution by plane geometry. Solutions using trigonometry are also possible. X B D A E Y P C Construct PD parallel to, forming isosceles triangle ADP. Similarly, construct PE parallel to, forming the congruent isosceles triangle A. As triangles Y and Y are similar, = EY DP. Also as triangles XDP and X are similar, + DP = EY + DX = DX. Adding, Because triangles ADP and A are congruent and isosceles, = DP = AE = AD. So ( + ) = EY + DX = AE + AD = 2 AE ( + )
3 Solving, we find which is independent of l. + = 2 AE + = AE 3. Find a formula for the sum }{{ }. n Solution. Let h equal the sum. Expanding each term in powers of 0 we have h = + ( + 0) + ( ) + ( n ) Each term in parentheses is a geometric series. Using we find ( k ) = 0k+ 0 = 0k+ h = n = ( n ) n = 0 ( n ) n = 0 0 n n = 0n+ 0 n 8 4. In a strange world there are n airports arranged around a giant circle, with exactly one airplane at each airport initially. Every day, exactly two of the airplanes fly, each going to one of its adjacent airports. Can the airplanes ever all gather at one airport? Solution built on that of Xingping Shen, Carmel High School. Number the airports and planes a, a 2,..., a n and p, p 2,..., p n going around the circle. We will try to gather the planes at a n. This is possible if n is odd or a multiple of 4, and impossible otherwise. Case : n is odd. As p n does not need to be moved, there are an even number of planes to move. For k n 2, p k and p n k need to move the same distance. Group each p k with p n k and each day fly one such pair one flight closer to a n. Case 2: n = 2m and m is even. Pair all of the planes except p m = p n/2 and fly them to a n as in Case. Then fly p m one step towards a n every day, paired with one other airplane that flies alternately out of and back to a n. As m is even, they arrive at a n on the same day. Case 3: If n = 2m and m is odd, the solution of Case 2 doesn t work, but we need to show there is no other solution that could work. Label airports alternately X and O around the circle. Initially the number of planes at airports marked X is m, #(X) = m, and also #(O) = m. Each day, #(X) and #(O) either each change by 2 or remain the same, depending on which airplanes fly. So if m is odd, neither #(X) nor #(O) can ever become 0.
