Second Round
2007
Day 1
1 Polynomial P (x) has integer coefficients. Prove, that if polynomials P (x) and P (P (P (x)))
have common real root, they also have a common integer root.
2 ABCDE is a convex pentagon and:
BC = CD, DE = EA, ∠BCD = ∠DEA = 90◦
Prove, that it is possible to build a triangle from segments AC, CE, EB. Find the value of
its angles if ∠ACE = α and ∠BEC = β.
3 An equilateral triangle with side n is built with n2 plates - equilateral triangles with side 1.
Each plate has one side black, and the other side white. We name the move the following
operation: we choose a plate P , which has common sides with at least two plates, whose
visible side is the same color as the visible side of P . Then, we turn over plate P .
For any n ≥ 2 decide whether there exists an innitial configuration of plates permitting for
an infinite sequence of moves.
