Let n,kn,k be positive integers so that nkn \ge k.Find the maximum number of binary sequances of length nn so that fixing any arbitary kk bits they do not produce all binary sequances of length kk.For exmple if k=1k=1 we can only have one sequance otherwise they will differ in at least one bit which means that bit produces all binary sequances of length 11.

Consider an acute-angled triangle ABCABC with AB=ACAB=AC and A>60\angle A>60^\circ. Let OO be the circumcenter of ABCABC. Point PP lies on circumcircle of BOCBOC such that BPACBP\parallel AC and point KK lies on segment APAP such that BK=BCBK=BC. Prove that CKCK bisects the arc BCBC of circumcircle of BOCBOC.

Let TT be a triangulation of a 100100-gon.We construct P(T)P(T) by copying the same 100100-gon and drawing a diagonal if it was not drawn in TT an there is a quadrilateral with this diagonal and two other vertices so that all the sides and diagonals(Except the one we are going to draw) are present in TT.Let f(T)f(T) be the number of intersections of diagonals in P(T)P(T).Find the minimum and maximum of f(T)f(T).
