Thus, the required sum is 8 3 3i.
11 CONTEST NOVEMBER 0 SOLUTION KEY Round A) Let x denote the side of each square cutout. 3 Since 37.5% = 3/8, we have ( 46 ) = 4 x 8 9 x = x =.5 (or 3 4 ). B) () 0t+ u = 7( t+ u) () (0 t+ u)( t+ u) = 567 () t = u Substituting for 0t + u in (), 7( t+ u) = 567 u = 3, t = 6 63 ( t+ u) = 8 t + u = 3u = 9 B)C) ST = ( S + 0)( T ) = ST S + 0T 0 S = 0(T ) S > 0 T >, S < 65 T < 4. Thus, there are 3 possible ordered pairs (S, T), namely (0, ), (40, 3) and (60, 4). However, the last ordered pair fails, since to travel 40 miles (60 mph for 4 hours), I would have to travel 80 mph for 3 hours, breaking the speed limit. Thus, there are only ordered pairs satisfying the never-break-the-speed-limit condition.
12 CONTEST NOVEMBER 0 SOLUTION KEY Round 3 K T R A) Since K is a right angle, isosceles triangle TK must be and KT = K. Thus, KR must be the longer side. K = RA = 3, KR = A = 5 TR = Use the area formula for a trapezoid directly Area = 3( + 5) = =0.5 A or determine the area of the rectangle ARK and subtract the area of the triangle KT. Area = 5 3 (5 3) = =0.5 B) ( x) ( x) 3 + = 338 x = = x = 6 Thus, the sides of the squares are 3 and 48 units. Q is the hypotenuse of a right triangle with a horizontal base of 80 and a vertical height of 48. ( 48,80, Q) is a ythagorean triple. ( Q) 48,80, = 6(3,5, x) x = 34 Q = C) Let x denote the side of the square. The side of the larger square is The perimeter of the rectangle is (k + 5k) = 8 k =. The rectangle is 4 x 0, resulting in an area of Thus, 40 4 x = x = = x = x+ x= x 4 4
13 CONTEST NOVEMBER 0 SOLUTION KEY Round A) N = 3 Any divisor (other than ) will have factors of or 3, but no other prime. Thus, the exponents of may be any integer from 0 to 5 inclusive 6 possibilities. The exponents of 3 may be any integer from 0 to 3 inclusive 4 possibilities. Choosing both exponents to be 0 gives us. Thus, there are 4(6) = 4 possible positive divisors. In general, determine the unique prime factorization of N, add to each exponent and multiply. B) 4x 4 + 5x = (4x )(x ) = (x + )(x )(x + )(x ). The sum of the factors is 6x. C) (x + y) 3 = x 3 + 3x y + 3xy + y 3 = x 3 + y 3 + 3xy(x + y) 6 3 = xy(6) = 8xy xy = 8 = 36 = 35 = The alternate solution below uses this assertion (fact): if a + b + c = 0, then a 3 + b 3 + c 3 = 3abc In other words, if the sum of 3 numbers is 0, then the sum of the cubes of the 3 numbers will always be 3 times the product of the 3 numbers. x + y = 6 x + y 6 = 0 x 3 + y 3 + ( 6) 3 = 3xy( 6) = 8xy which is the same result as above. roof of the assertion (x a)(x b)(x c) = 0 has solutions x = a, b, c Expanding, and regrouping, x 3 (a + b + c)x + (ab + ac + bc)x abc = 0 3 a ( a + b + c) a + ( ab + ac + bc) a abc = 0 3 Substituting for x: b ( a + b + c) b + ( ab + ac + bc) b abc = 0 3 c ( a + b + c) c + ( ab + ac + bc) c abc = 0 Adding these three equations, a + b + c ( a + b + c)( a + b + c ) + ( ab + ac + bc)( a + b + c) 3abc = Finally, if (a + b + c) = 0, a + b + c 3abc = 0 a + b + c = 3abc.

Alternate Solution: cos(70 + x) = sin( 600 ) cos(70 + x) = sin( ) = sin(0 ) = sin 60 = cos( ± 30 ) , 480,840,00,560, x=± n x = + n n 60, 40,780,40,500,
15 CONTEST NOVEMBER 0 SOLUTION KEY Round 6 A) Let m = x and m = (x + 5) m 3 = 73 (x + 5) + x + 07 = 80 x = 9 m = 44, m = 9 b = 5 Since a is vertical to the alternate interior angle of 3, a = 73. Thus, b a = 5 73 = b.. C A a B B) In isosceles ΔABC, a vertex angle of (k) leaves base angles of (90 k) k k Thus, m AB = 45 m BA = 35 The required difference is 35 ( 90 k ) and = ( 90 + ) k 3k + = 45 m BC k or equivalent. A B C C) Case - Given angles are the base angles: x + 5 = x 30 x = 35 base angles 40, vertex angle 00 Case - Both base angles measure (x + 5) : (x + 5) + x 30 = 80 4x = 00 x = 50 vertex angle = (50) 30 = 70 Case 3 Both base angles measure (x 30) : (x 30) + (x + 5) = 80 5x = 35 x = 47 vertex angle = = 5 Thus, the required sum is.
16 CONTEST - NOVEMBER 0 SOLUTION KEY Team Round A) Let ( x, y ) denote z+ ( i ) = ( a ) + ( b+ ) i. Then: Let Q( x, y ) denote z+ ( i) = ( a+ ) + ( b ) i. Then: Q = 5 (( a ) ( a+ ) ) + (( b+ ) ( b ) ) = 5 ( ) ( b ) 4( b + ) = 6 b = ± =, 3 z = a + b = 49 a = 49 or 49 9 a = ±4 3, ± 0 x = a, y = b+ x = a+, y = b = 5 B) If 0 < x A < 0, then the solutions in x lie strictly between A/ and A/ + 5. If A is even, then so are the coordinates of the endpoints and Q. Since this a strict inequality, the endpoints are excluded and there are always 4 integer solutions Q. A/ A/ + 5 If A is odd (say k + for some integer k), then the coordinates of the endpoints and Q are k + and k + 5. There are 5 integer solutions, namely (k + ) (k + 5)..... Q.. k+ k+ k+3 k+4 k+5 Thus, only and E are true statements. C) x y k xy + = ( ) Moving all terms to the left side and dividing both sides by y, we get a quadratic equation in x y : A x y B x x k + = 0 y y Using the quadratic formula, x k± ( k) 4 = = k± k. R y Since x > y, the required ratio is greater than and x y = k+ k The same result is obtained if x ( ky) x + y = 0 is treated as a quadratic in x and solved for x in terms of k and y. Verify that you get the same result follows. x ky y k T Q = ± and S C
17 Team Round - continued ) CONTEST - NOVEMBER 0 SOLUTION KEY k 96 must be positive, so k > 0 for starters. k 96 must also be a perfect square, i.e. there is an integer N such that k 96 = N or k N = 96 Let s examine a list of consecutive perfect squares and look for gaps of The gap between consecutive entries grows uniformly by, so eventually the gap can be any odd integer. Consecutive perfect squares always differ by an odd amount, so we are looking for nonconsecutive perfect squares. We are looking for perfect squares which sandwich an odd number of consecutive perfect squares. (erfect squares sandwiching an even number of perfect squares would differ by an odd number.) The minimum difference if there are 9 intermediate numbers is - = 0, so 7 is the maximum number of intermediate perfect squares. There are 4 possible answers = 96 k = 0 5 intermediate numbers 6 gaps a, a +, a +0 6a + 30 = 96 a = 5 ( ) k = k = 3 intermediate numbers 4 gaps a, a +, a + 6 4a + = 96 a = 00 ( 44 69) 96 k = 96 k = 4 intermediate number a + (a + ) = 96 a = 47 which occurs between.. hmm? Continuing the list of perfect squares, 400, 44, 484, 59, (576), 65 k = 65 k = 5 Alternate solution: (Aaargh! - Why didn t I go down this road first!!!) k 96 = N k N = 96 (k + N)(k N) = 96 So just look at factor pairs of 96, namely (, 9), (, 48), (3, 3), (4, 4), (6, 6), (8, ) Equating k N with the smaller factor and k + N with the larger, we have: k N = k + N = Adding and ignoring odd sums, we have k = 50, 8,, 0 k = 5, 4, and 0 (in any order).

Isosceles triangles S and QT m ST = 90 Let Q = QT = x S = = x + Q = x + T QT x cot ( ST) = S = = x + 3 Q = SR x + = 3 x = 3+ S (x + ) = 3 ( 3 ) 3 Substituting, cot ( ST) = = = = Alternate Solution: Let = x and Q = y. The remaining lengths are as indicated in the diagram. Since ST = and m TSR = 30, we have the following system of x y = equations: x x + y = ( xy, ) =, and S T y y cot ( ST) = = = = = = 3 S x x x 30 x x + y y y Q T R Q y T x - y R Note: m ST = 80 ( ) = 75, but is was not necessary to invoke the expansions cos( ) for sin(a + B) and cos(a + B) to evaluate cot(75 ) as to get an exact answer. sin( ) This makes the problem solvable by anyone with minimal knowledge of right triangle trig, i.e. SOHCAHTOA, reciprocal relationships and special angles (30, 60, 45 ).
19 Team Round - continued CONTEST - NOVEMBER 0 SOLUTION KEY F) Let x = m A. has (0 + n) sides, i.e. at least sides and at most 9 sides. Thus, 80((0 + n) ) = 0(x + k) + nx = x(0 + n) + 0k k (80 x)(0 + n) = k x = n As n increases from to 9, the denominator of the fraction increases from to 9. If n =, then the numerator must be the smallest possible multiple of. This occurs for k = 8 and we have x = A = / = 40. k = 9 also insures divisibility by, but x = / = 30 and it s not as large as possible k 5k n = : = 30 + k = 6, x= 80 35, (A, B) = (45,5) 6 n = 3: k 35 0 k+ = + 9 k = 3, x= 80 30, (A, B) = (50,53) k 5( 36 + k ) n = 4: = k = 6, x= 80 30, (A, B) = (50,56) k k n = 5: = 4 + k = 3, x= 80 6, (A, B) = (54,57) 5 3 n = 6: k 5(36 + k = ) k = 4, x= 80 5, (A, B) = (55,59) 6 8 n = 7: k k+ = + 3 k = 5, x= 80 30, (A, B) = (50,65) k 5k n = 8: = 0 + k = 9, x= 80 5, (A, B) = (55,64) 8 9 n = 9: k k =, x= 80 0, (A, B) = (60,6) 9 Thus, (m, M) = (, 5).
