Let $ABCD$ be a square. Let $E, Z$ be points on the sides $AB, CD$ of the square respectively, such that $DE\parallel BZ$. Assume that the triangles $\triangle EAD, \triangle ZCB$ and the parallelogram $BEDZ$ have the same area. If the distance between the parallel lines $DE$ and $BZ$ is equal to $1$, determine the area of the square.
If $x,y$ are real numbers with $x+y\geqslant 0$, determine the minimum value of the expression \[K=x^5+y^5-x^4y-xy^4+x^2+4x+7\]For which values of $x,y$ does $K$ take its minimum value?
Consider the digits $1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7$. (a) Determine the number of seven-digit numbers with distinct digits that can be constructed using the digits above. (b) If we place all of these seven-digit numbers in increasing order, find the seven-digit number which appears in the $2022^{\text{th}}$ position.

Determine all real numbers $x\in\mathbb{R}$ for which \[ \left\lfloor \frac{x}{2} \right\rfloor + \left\lfloor \frac{x}{3} \right\rfloor=x-2022. \]The notation $\lfloor z \rfloor$, for $z\in\mathbb{R}$, denotes the largest integer which is less than or equal to $z$. For example: \[\lfloor 3.98 \rfloor =3 \quad \text{and} \quad \lfloor 0.14 \rfloor =0.\]
Determine all pairs of prime numbers $(p, q)$ which satisfy the equation \[ p^3+q^3+1=p^2q^2 \]
Let $ABC$ be an acute-angled triangle, and let $D, E$ and $K$ be the midpoints of its sides $AB, AC$ and $BC$ respectively. Let $O$ be the circumcentre of triangle $ABC$, and let $M$ be the foot of the perpendicular from $A$ on the line $BC$. From the midpoint $P$ of $OM$ we draw a line parallel to $AM$, which meets the lines $DE$ and $OA$ at the points $T$ and $Z$ respectively. Prove that: (a) the triangle $DZE$ is isosceles (b) the area of the triangle $DZE$ is given by the formula \[E_{DZE}=\frac{BC\cdot OK}{8}\]
Let $A$ be a subset of $\{1, 2, 3, \ldots, 50\}$ with the property: for every $x,y\in A$ with $x\neq y$, it holds that \[\left| \frac{1}{x}- \frac{1}{y}\right|>\frac{1}{1000}.\]Determine the largest possible number of elements that the set $A$ can have.

Prove that for every natural number $k$, at least one of the integers \[ 2k-1, \quad 5k-1 \quad \text{and} \quad 13k-1\]is not a perfect square.
In a triangle $ABC$ with $\widehat{A}=80^{\circ}$ and $\widehat{B}=60^{\circ}$, the internal angle bisector of $\widehat{C}$ meets the side $AB$ at the point $D$. The parallel from $D$ to the side $AC$, meets the side $BC$ at the point $E$. Find the measure of the angle $\angle EAB$.
If $a,b,c$ are positive real numbers with $abc=1$, prove that (a) \[2\left(\frac{ab}{a+b}+\frac{bc}{b+c}+\frac{ca}{c+a}\right) \geqslant \frac{9}{ab+bc+ca}\](b)\[2\left(\frac{ab}{a+b}+\frac{bc}{b+c}+\frac{ca}{c+a}\right) \geqslant \frac{9}{a^2 b+b^2 c+c^2 a}\]
The numbers $1, 2, 3, \ldots , 10$ are written on the blackboard. In each step, Andrew chooses two numbers $a, b$ which are written on the blackboard such that $a\geqslant 2b$, he erases them, and in their place writes the number $a-2b$. Find all numbers $n$, such that after a sequence of steps as above, at the end only the number $n$ will remain on the blackboard.
