    Ayan Khan
    This document contains mock problems for the EGMO TST exam over two days. [Day 1 contains three problems involving writing positive integers as sums of powers of φ, proving properties of triangles formed by line intersections in circles, and bounding the number of subsets of a set with a given sum. Day 2 contains problems about boys and girls writing height differences, proving properties of "almost square" positive integers, and proving a property about circumcenters of triangles formed by points inside another triangle.]

    Day 1
    √
    1. Let φ = 1+2 5 . Prove that every positive integer can be written as the sum of distinct
    integral powers of φ.

    2. Each of three lines cuts chords of equal lengths in two given circles. The points of
    intersection of these lines form a triangle. Prove that the circumcircle of this triangle
    passes through the midpoint of the segment joining the centres of the circles.

    3. Let S be a set of n real numbers, and let C be an arbitrary real number. Prove that
    n+1
    there are at most 2n+1 subsets of S whose elements have sum C.

    Day 2
    1. There are n girls and n boys in a school class, where n is a positive integer. The
    heights of all the children in this class are distinct. Every girl determines the number
    of boys that are taller than her, subtracts the number of girls that are taller than her,
    and writes the result on a piece of paper. Every boy determines the number of girls
    that are shorter than him, subtracts the number of boys that are shorter than him,
    and writes the result on a piece of paper. Prove that the integers written down by the
    girls are the same as the integers written down by the boys (up to a permutation).

    2. A positive integer n is called almost-square if n can be represented as n = ab where


    a, b are positive integers that a ≤ b ≤ 1.01a. Prove that there exists infinitely many
    positive integers m that there’re no almost-square positive integer among m, m +
    1, . . . , m + 198.

    3. Points P and Q be lie inside triangle ABC, such that ∠BAP = ∠QAC, ∠CBP =
    ∠QBA and ∠ACP = ∠QCB. Side BC intersects circle (ACP ) and (AQB) at R
    and S respectively. Prove that the circumcentre of (ASR) lies on the perpendicular
    bisector of P Q.
