First Round Dutch Mathematical Olympiad
... Any two circles intersect in at most 2 points, a circle and a line intersect in at most 2 points and two line intersect in at most 1 point. Therefore, the number of intersections cannot be more than 6 + 6 + 6 + 1 = 19. You can easily check that this number of intersections can be realized, see for e ...

... Cassels [1] proved that there are no rationals that satisfy the conditions of (1). Cassels also shows that this problem was expressed by Mordell [3], in equivalent, if not exact form. Additionally, Cassels has compiled an excellent bibliography that demonstrates that the "Mnich" problem has its root ...

Assignment # 3 : Solutions
... From definition of odd number, a=2n+1 and b=2k+1 for integers n, k. a+b = 2n+1+2k+1 = 2n + 2k+ 2 = 2*(n+k+1) Let integer s = n+k+1. Then we have a+b = 2*s. Therefore, from definition of even, a+b is even. 24.The problem with the given proof is that it “begs the question.” Explanation: Proof assume ...
