In this post, here are problems from Regional Mathematics Olympiad, RMO 2011 Re-Test Paper. Let ABC be an acute angled scalene triangle with circumcenter O and orthocenter H. If M is the midpoint of BC, then show that AO and HM intersect at the circumcircle of ABC. Let n be a positive integer such […]
Let $ABC$ be a triangle. Let $D, E, F$ be points respectively on the segments $BC, CA, AB$ such that $AD, BE, CF$ concur at the point $K$. Suppose $\frac{BD}{DC} = \frac{BF}{FA}$ and $∠ADB = ∠AFC$. Prove that $∠ ABE = ∠ CAD$. Let $ (a_1a_2a_3.....a_{2011}) $ be a permutation (that is arrangement) of the […]
In this post, there are problems from Regional Mathematics Olympiad, RMO 2010. Try out these problems. Let $ABCDEF$ be a convex hexagon in which the diagonals $AD, BE, CF$ are concurrent at $O$. Suppose the area of triangle $OAF$ is the geometric mean of those of $OAB$ and $OEF$; and the area of the triangle […]
In this post, there are problems from Regional Mathematics Olympiad, RMO 2009. Try out these problems. Let $ABC$ be a triangle in which $AB = AC$ and let $I$ be its in-centre. Suppose $BC = AB + AI$. Find $∠BAC$.Discussion Show that there is no integer a such that $ a^2-3a-19 $ is divisible by […]
Let's discuss a problem based on Integer Sided Obtuse angled triangles with Perimeter. Find the number of integer-sided isosceles obtuse-angled triangles with perimeter 2008. (Indian RMO 2008) Discussion: Let the three sides be a, a and b. Hence 2a + b = 2008 ... (i) Using the triangular inequality we have 2a > b ...(ii) […]
In this post, there are problems from Regional Mathematics Olympiad, RMO 2008. Try out these problems. Let $ABC$ be an acute-angled triangle, let $D$, $F$ be the mid-points of $BC, AB$ respectively. Let the perpendicular from $F$ to $AC$ and the perpendicular at $B$ to $BC$ meet in $N$. Prove that $ND$ is equal to […]
A square sheet of paper ABCD is so folded that B falls on the mid-point of M of CD. Prove that the crease will divide BC in the ratio 5:3. Discussion: Assuming the side of the square is 's'. Let a part of the crease be 'x' (hence the remaining part is 's-x'). We apply […]
