2011 USA Mathematical Olympiad - Day II


USAMO 4. Consider the assertion that for each positive integer n 2, the remainder upon dividing 22^n by 2n1 is a power of 4. Either prove the assertion or find (with proof) a counterexample

USAMO 5. Let P be a given point inside quadrilateral ABCD. Points Q1 and Q2 are located within ABCD such that Q1BC = ABP, Q1CB = DCP, Q2AD = BAP,  Q2DA = CDP. Prove that Q1Q2 AB if and only if Q1Q2 CD.

USAMO 6. Let A be a set with |A| = 225, meaning that A has 225 elements. Suppose further that there are eleven subsets A1, ... ,A11 of A such that |Ai| = 45 for 1 i 11 and |Ai Aj | = 9 for 1 i < j 11. Prove that |A1 A2 A11| 165, and give an example for which equality holds.
