Let \(ABC\) be an isosceles triangle with \(AB=AC\). Point \(D\) lies on side \(AC\) such that \(BD\) is the angle bisector of \(\angle ABC\). Point \(E\) lies on side \(BC\) between \(B\) and \(C\) such that \(BE=CD\). Prove that \(DE\) is parallel to \(AB\).
Is it possible to place a positive integer in every cell of a \(10\times10\) array in such a way that both the following conditions are satisfied?
1. Each number (not in the bottom row) is a proper divisor of the number immediately below. 2. Each row consists of \(10\) consecutive positive integers (but not necessarily in order).
A round-robin tournament is one where each team plays every other team exactly once. Five teams take part in such a tournament getting: \(3\) points for a win, \(1\) point for a draw and \(0\) points for a loss. At the end of the tournament the teams are ranked from first to last according to the number of points.
Is it possible that at the end of the tournament, each team has a different number of points, and each team except for the team ranked last has exactly two more points than the next-ranked team?
\(ABCD\) is a rectangle with side lengths \(AB=CD=1\) and \(BC=DA=2\). Let \(M\) be the midpoint of \(AD\). Point \(P\) lies on the opposite side of line \(MB\) to \(A\), such that triangle \(MBP\) is equilateral. Find the value of \(\angle PCB\).
Josie and Kevin are each thinking of a two digit positive integer. Josie’s number is twice as big as Kevin’s. One digit of Kevin’s number is equal to the sum of digits of Josie’s number. The other digit of Kevin’s number is equal to the difference between the digits of Josie’s number. What is the sum of Kevin and Josie’s numbers?
A rectangular sheet of paper is folded so that one corner lies on top of the corner diagonally opposite. The resulting shape is a pentagon whose area is \(20\%\) one-sheet-thick, and \(80\%\) two-sheets-thick. Determine the ratio of the two sides of the original sheet of paper.
A shop sells golf balls, golf clubs and golf hats. Golf balls can be purchased at a rate of \(25\) pennies for two balls. Golf hats cost \(£1\) each. Golf clubs cost \(£10\) each. At this shop, Ross purchased \(100\) items for a total cost of exactly \(£100\) (Ross purchased at least one of each type of item). How many golf hats did Ross purchase?
