Note that the side length of the square is equal to the radius of the quarter circles.

8. Solve for (𝑚 − 2)(𝑛 + 2) given that 𝑚 > 𝑛, 𝑚 + 𝑛 = 8, and 𝑚2 + 𝑛2 = 50.

A. 12
B. 15
C. 18
D. 21
E. 24
Answer: B
Solution:
(𝑚 − 2)(𝑛 + 2)
= 𝑚𝑛 + 2𝑚 − 2𝑛 − 4
= 𝑚𝑛 + 2(𝑚 − 𝑛) − 4
Now,
(𝑚 + 𝑛)2 = 82
𝑚2 + 2𝑚𝑛 + 𝑛2 = 64
50 + 2𝑚𝑛 = 64
2𝑚𝑛 = 14
𝑚𝑛 = 7.
 Also,
(𝑚 − 𝑛)2 = 𝑚2 − 2𝑚𝑛 + 𝑛2
(𝑚 − 𝑛)2 = 50 − 2(7) = 36
𝑚 − 𝑛 = 6, 𝑠𝑖𝑛𝑐𝑒 𝑚 > 𝑛.
Hence,
𝑚𝑛 + 2(𝑚 − 𝑛) − 4
= 7 + 2(6) − 4
= 15.

9. 𝐴 and 𝐵 are two unique positive divisors of 2025. Determine the minimum positive difference
between any two distinct possible values of 𝐴𝐵.
A. 0
B. 1
C. 2
D. 6
E. 10
Answer: C
Solution:
Note that 2025 = 34 × 52 .
Since 𝐴 and 𝐵 are factors of 2025, then the product 𝐴𝐵 can also be expressed as
𝐴𝐵 = 3𝑚 × 5𝑛 .
Now, let 𝐴1 𝐵1 and 𝐴2 𝐵2 be two distinct possible values where 𝐴1 , 𝐴2 , 𝐵1 , 𝐵2 are factors of 2025.
Also,
𝐴1 𝐵1 = 3𝑎 5𝑏+1 𝑎𝑛𝑑 𝐴2 𝐵2 = 3𝑎+1 5𝑏
since we need the two values to be as close as possible.
𝐴1 𝐵1 − 𝐴2 𝐵2
= 3𝑎 5𝑏+1 − 3𝑎+1 5𝑏
= (3𝑎 × 5𝑏 )(5 − 3)
= (3𝑎 × 5𝑏 )(2)
The minimum difference is achieved when 𝑎 = 0 and 𝑏 = 0.
Hence, we have
(30 × 50 )(2)
= 1(2)
= 2.

10. Six points 𝐴, 𝐵, 𝐶, 𝐷, 𝐸, and 𝐹 are equally spaced along a straight path, from left to right. You are
tasked to walk along the path starting from point 𝐴 to point 𝐹 and then from point 𝐹 to point 𝐴
while still following the straight path. You must repeat this until you are at point 𝐵 for the 2024th
1
time. Determine which point you are at by the time you complete 3 of the task.
A. Point 𝐴
B. Point 𝐵
C. Point 𝐶
D. Point 𝐷
E. Point 𝐸
Answer: D
Solution:
There are 5 subdivisions of the path from point 𝐴 to point 𝐹 and 5 as well for vice versa, a total of
10 subdivisions from point 𝐴 back to point 𝐴, passing through point 𝐵 twice.
2024
We have 10 ( 2 ) − 1 = 10119 subdivisions to pass through until we are at point 𝐵 for the 2024th
time.
 Now,
1
(10119) = 3373.

Then,
3373
= 337 𝑟𝑒𝑚𝑎𝑖𝑛𝑑𝑒𝑟 3.

Hence, three points after point 𝐴 would be point 𝐷.

11. Determine the smallest four-digit number that can be expressed as a sum of the squares of three
consecutive even integers.
Answer: 1208
Solution:
Let 2𝑛 − 2, 2𝑛 and 2𝑛 + 2 be three consecutive even integers.
(2𝑛 − 2)2 + (2𝑛)2 + (2𝑛 + 2)2 ≥ 1000
4𝑛2 − 8𝑛 + 4 + 4𝑛2 + 4𝑛2 + 8𝑛 + 4 ≥ 1000
12𝑛2 + 8 ≥ 1000
12𝑛2 ≥ 992
248 2
𝑛2 ≥ = 82
3 3
𝑛2 = 100
𝑛 = 10
Hence, we have
12𝑛2 + 8 = 12(100) + 8 = 1208.

12. Determine the smallest possible real value of the function 𝑓(𝑥) = 13 − 6 cos 𝑥 − sin2 𝑥.
Answer: 7
Solution:
𝑓(𝑥) = 13 − 6 cos 𝑥 − (1 − cos2 𝑥)
𝑓(𝑥) = cos 2 𝑥 − 6 cos 𝑥 + 12
𝑓(𝑥) = cos 2 𝑥 − 6 cos 𝑥 + 9 + 3
𝑓(𝑥) = (cos 𝑥 − 3)2 + 3
Recall that −1 ≤ cos(𝑥) ≤ 1.
Hence, the minimum value is
(1 − 3)2 + 3
=4+3
= 7.

13. The equation 4𝑥 3 − 17𝑥 2 − 𝑥 + 20 = 0 has two integer solutions, 𝐴 and 𝐵. Find the value of the
product 𝐴𝐵.
Answer: −4
Solution:
Using Rational Root Theorem, we have
± 𝐹𝑎𝑐𝑡𝑜𝑟𝑠 𝑜𝑓 20 ±1, ±2, ±4, ±5, ±10, ±20
𝑥= = .
± 𝐹𝑎𝑐𝑡𝑜𝑟𝑠 𝑜𝑓 4 ±1, ±2, ±4
We can focus on trying integer values of 𝑥.
When 𝑥 = 4,
4𝑥 3 − 17𝑥 2 − 𝑥 + 20 = (𝑥 − 4)(4𝑥 2 − 𝑥 − 5).
Now,
4𝑥 2 − 𝑥 − 5 = (4𝑥 − 5)(𝑥 + 1).
 This means that the two integer solutions are −1 and 4.
Hence, the product is (−1)(4) = −4.

14. Rectangle 𝐴𝐵𝐶𝐷 has sides 𝐴𝐵 = 30 and 𝐵𝐶 = 16. If its diagonals intersect at point 𝐸, what is the

Let 𝑃 be the midpoint of side 𝐴𝐷.

This means that 𝐴𝑃 = 8 and 𝑃𝐸 = 15.

Now,

Answer: 420
Solution:
The number of ways to choose 6 beads of different shapes from a total of 7 shapes is (76) = 7.

17. Suppose 𝑓(𝑥) is a quadratic function such that 𝑓(0) = −𝑓(3) and 𝑓(2) = −𝑓(−1) = −3. What is
the product of the roots of 𝑓(𝑥)?
3
Answer: − 2
Solution:
Let 𝑓(𝑥) = 𝑎𝑥 2 + 𝑏𝑥 + 𝑐.
𝑓(0) = 𝑐
𝑓(3) = 9𝑎 + 3𝑏 + 𝑐
𝑓(2) = 4𝑎 + 2𝑏 + 𝑐 = −3
𝑓(−1) = 𝑎 − 𝑏 + 𝑐 = 3
𝑓(2) + 𝑓(−1):
5𝑎 + 𝑏 + 2𝑐 = 0
2𝑐 = −5𝑎 − 𝑏
−5𝑎 − 𝑏
𝑐=

Now,
𝑓(0) = −𝑓(3)
𝑐 = −(9𝑎 + 3𝑏 + 𝑐)

 Then,
−5𝑎 − 𝑏 −9𝑎 − 3𝑏

𝑏 = −2𝑎.
We have

Solution:
When distributing 𝑛 distinct objects to 𝑘 distinct boxes, we have 𝑘 𝑛 number of ways.
We have 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 = 27 = 128 ways.

19. Suppose 20242 divides 𝑛!. Find the smallest possible value of 𝑛.
Answer: 46
Solution:
Note that 20242 = 26 × 112 × 232 .
Hence, we need to have 2 23s in 𝑛! since 23 is the largest prime number in the prime factorization
of 2024.
This means that 𝑛 = 2(23) = 46.

21. Determine the product 𝑥𝑦 such that the value of the expression 𝑥 2 + 𝑦 2 − 8𝑥 + 4𝑦 + 28 is at
minimum.
Answer: −8
Solution:
(𝑥 2 − 8𝑥) + (𝑦 2 + 4𝑦) + 28
= (𝑥 2 − 8𝑥 + 16) + (𝑦 2 + 4𝑦 + 4) + 28 − 16 − 4
= (𝑥 − 4)2 + (𝑦 + 2)2 + 8
It attains minimum when 𝑥 = 4, 𝑦 = −2.
Hence, 𝑥𝑦 = 4(−2) = −8.

22. How many positive even integers less than 2024 contain the digit 5 as exactly one of their digits?
Answer: 180
Solution:
For 1-digit integers: 0
For 2-digit integers: 5
For 3-digit integers: 5 × (1 × 9 + 8 × 1) = 85
For 1000 to 1999: 5 × (1 × 9 + 9 × 1) = 90
For 2000 to 2024: 0
Hence, we have
5 + 85 + 90 = 180.

23. For how many positive integers 𝑛 > 1 is it true that 20242024 is a perfect 𝑛𝑡ℎ power?
Answer: 15
Solution:
20242024 = (23 × 11 × 23)2024
Since the prime factorization of 2024 share an exponent of 2024, we just count the number of
factors of the exponent 2024.
(3 + 1)(1 + 1)(1 + 1) = (4)(2)(2) = 16
Hence, there are 16 factors of 2024, all of which we can express (23 × 11 × 23)2024 as an integer
to the 𝑛th power, however, except for the factor 1 for the perfect 𝑛th power.
Hence, we have
16 − 1 = 15.

24. Given that 2024 ≥ 4 − 8 + 12 − 16 + 20 − 24 + ⋯ + 4𝐾 and 𝐾 is as large as possible, find the

value of 𝐾.
Answer: 1011
Solution:
4 − 8 + 12 − 16 + 20 − 24 + ⋯ + 4𝐾 ≤ 2024
(4 − 8) + (12 − 16) + (20 − 24) + ⋯ + 4𝐾 ≤ 2024
(−4) + (−4) + (−4) + ⋯ + 4𝐾 ≤ 2024
This shows that 𝐾 must be odd to be as large as possible.
Let 𝐾 = 2𝑚 + 1, where 𝑚 is an integer.
This means that there are 2𝑚 terms before 4𝐾.
Since we’ve paired them up as above, we have 𝑚 pairs adding to (−4).
We have
(−4)(𝑚) + 4(2𝑚 + 1) ≤ 2024
−4𝑚 + 8𝑚 + 4 ≤ 2024
4𝑚 ≤ 2020
4𝑚 = 2020
𝑚 = 505.
 Hence, we have
𝐾 = 2(505) + 1 = 1011.

Solution:
Note that the inradius of a triangle is
𝐴Δ

where 𝐴Δ is the area and 𝑠 is the semiperimeter of the given triangle.
Now,

𝐴𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑐𝑖𝑟𝑐𝑙𝑒 𝐴 𝜋(𝐴Δ ) 4𝜋

Given the perimeter of the right triangle, we have 𝑠 = 2 = 33.
We have
332 33 33 332 1089

𝜋(𝐴Δ ) 4𝜋 33 (4𝜋)(33) 132𝜋
This means that 𝐴Δ = 132.

𝐴Δ 2 132 2
𝐴𝑟𝑒𝑎𝑐𝑖𝑟𝑐𝑙𝑒 = 𝜋 ( ) = 𝜋 ( ) = 16𝜋.
𝑠 33
Hence, we have 132 − 16𝜋.
