ASSIGNMENT

1. Triangle ABC has perimeter 1. Its three altitudes from the side lengths of a triangle. Find set of all
possible values of min ( AB, BC , CA) .

2. Let A be the set of finite sequence of positive integers a1 , a2 ,....., ak such that an – an –1 = an –2 for all
3  n  k. If a1 = a2 = 1, and k = 18, determine the number of elements of A.

3. A 3 × 3 grid to be painted with three colors (red, green, and blue) such that
(i) not two squares that share an edge are the same color and
(ii) not two corner squares on the same edge of the grid have the same color.
As an example, the upper-left and bottom-left squares cannot both be red, as that would violate
condition (ii). In how many ways can this be done? (Rotations and reflections are considered distinct
colorings.)

4. A point M is given inside a triangle ABC. Let D, E , F be the projections of the point M onto the
BC CA AB
side BC , CA, AB respectively. Find the minimum value of the sum + + .
MD ME MF

5. Find all the positive integers x, y, z, t to that x + y + z = xyzt.
