p1. Suppose xy=0.ab\frac{x}{y} = 0.\overline{ab} where xx and yy are relatively prime positive integers and ab+a+b+1ab + a + b + 1 is a multiple of 1212. Find the sum of all possible values of yy.
p2. Let AA be the set of points {(0,0),(2,0),(0,2),(2,2),(3,1),(1,3)}\{(0, 0), (2, 0), (0, 2),(2, 2),(3, 1),(1, 3)\}. How many distinct circles pass through at least three points in AA?
p3. Jack and Jill need to bring pails of water home. The river is the xx-axis, Jack is initially at the point (5,3)(-5, 3), Jill is initially at the point (6,1)(6, 1), and their home is at the point (0,h)(0, h) where h>0h > 0. If they take the shortest paths home given that each of them must make a stop at the river, they walk exactly the same total distance. What is hh?
p4. What is the largest perfect square which is not a multiple of 1010 and which remains a perfect square if the ones and tens digits are replaced with zeroes?
p5. In convex polygon PP, each internal angle measure (in degrees) is a distinct integer. What is the maximum possible number of sides PP could have?
p6. How many polynomials p(x)p(x) of degree exactly 33 with real coefficients satisfy p(0),p(1),p(2),p(3){0,1,2}?p(0), p(1), p(2), p(3) \in \{0, 1, 2\}?
p7. Six spheres, each with radius 44, are resting on the ground. Their centers form a regular hexagon, and adjacent spheres are tangent. A seventh sphere, with radius 1313, rests on top of and is tangent to all six of these spheres. How high above the ground is the center of the seventh sphere?
p8. You have a paper square. You may fold it along any line of symmetry. (That is, the layers of paper must line up perfectly.) You then repeat this process using the folded piece of paper. If the direction of the folds does not matter, how many ways can you make exactly eight folds while following these rules?
p9. Quadrilateral ABCDABCD has AB=40\overline{AB} = 40, CD=10\overline{CD} = 10, AD=BC\overline{AD} = \overline{BC}, mBAD=20om\angle BAD = 20^o, and mABC=70om \angle ABC = 70^o. What is the area of quadrilateral ABCDABCD?
p10. We say that a permutation σ\sigma of the set {1,2,...,n}\{1, 2,..., n\} preserves divisibilty if σ(a)\sigma (a) divides σ(b)\sigma (b) whenever aa divides bb. How many permutations of {1,2,...,40}\{1, 2,..., 40\} preserve divisibility? (A permutation of {1,2,...,n}\{1, 2,..., n\} is a function σ\sigma from {1,2,...,n}\{1, 2,..., n\} to itself such that for any b{1,2,...,n}b \in \{1, 2,..., n\}, there exists some a{1,2,...,n}a \in \{1, 2,..., n\} satisfying σ(a)=b\sigma (a) = b.)
p11. In the diagram shown at right, how many ways are there to remove at least one edge so that some circle with an “A” and some circle with a “B” remain connected? https://cdn.artofproblemsolving.com/attachments/8/7/fde209c63cc23f6d3482009cc6016c7cefc868.png
p12. Let SS be the set of the 125125 points in three-dimension space of the form (x,y,z)(x, y, z) where xx, yy, and zz are integers between 11 and 55, inclusive. A family of snakes lives at the point (1,1,1)(1, 1, 1), and one day they decide to move to the point (5,5,5)(5, 5, 5). Snakes may slither only in increments of (1,0,0)(1,0,0), (0,1,0)(0, 1, 0), and (0,0,1)(0, 0, 1). Given that at least one snake has slithered through each point of SS by the time the entire family has reached (5,5,5)(5, 5, 5), what is the smallest number of snakes that could be in the family?
