332. Function f : (0; +∞) → (0; +∞) satisfies <strong>the</strong> inequality f(3x) ≥ f ( 1<br />

2 f(2x)) + 2x<br />

for every x > 0. Prove that f(x) ≥ x for every x > 0.<br />

(V. Yasinskyy, Vinnytsya)<br />

333. Let circle ω touches <strong>the</strong> sides <strong>of</strong> angle ∠A at points B and C, B ′ and C ′ are <strong>the</strong> midpoints<br />

<strong>of</strong> AB and AC respectively. Points M and Q are chosen at <strong>the</strong> straight line B ′ C ′ and point<br />

K is chosen at bigger ark BC <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong> circle ω. Line segments KM and KQ intersect ω at<br />

points L and P. Find ∠MAQ, if <strong>the</strong> intersection point <strong>of</strong> line segments MP and LQ belongs<br />

to circle ω.<br />

334. Let x, y, z be pairwise distinct real numbers such that<br />

k = 1 + xy<br />

x − y , l = 1 + yz 1 + zx<br />

and m =<br />

y − z z − x<br />

are integers. Prove that k, l and m are pairwise relatively prime.<br />

(L. Orydoroga, Donetsk)<br />

335. A point O is chosen at <strong>the</strong> side AC <strong>of</strong> triangle ABC so that <strong>the</strong> circle ω with center O touches<br />

<strong>the</strong> side AB at point K and BK = BC. Prove that <strong>the</strong> altitude that is perpendicular to AC<br />

bisects <strong>the</strong> tangent line from <strong>the</strong> point C to ω.<br />

(I. Nagel, Evpatoria)<br />

336. Find all sequences {a n , n ≥ 1} <strong>of</strong> positive integers such that for every positive integers m<br />

and n <strong>the</strong> number n + m2<br />

a n + a 2 m<br />

is an integer.<br />

(V. Yasinskyy, Vinnytsya)<br />

337. <strong>In</strong> a school class with 3n pupils, any two <strong>of</strong> <strong>the</strong>m make a common present to exactly one<br />

o<strong>the</strong>r pupil. Prove that for all odd n it is possible that <strong>the</strong> following holds: for any three<br />

pupils A, B and C in <strong>the</strong> class, if A and B make a present to C <strong>the</strong>n A and C make a present<br />

to B.<br />

(Baltic Way)<br />

338. A circle ω 1 touches sides <strong>of</strong> angle A at points B and C. A straight line AD intersects ω 1 at<br />

points D and Q, AD < AQ. The circle ω 2 with center A and radius AB intersects AQ at a<br />

point I and intersects some line passing through <strong>the</strong> point D at points M and P. Prove that<br />

I is <strong>the</strong> incenter <strong>of</strong> triangle MP Q.<br />

(I. Nagel, Evpatoria)<br />

339. The insphere <strong>of</strong> triangular pyramid SABC is tangent to <strong>the</strong> faces SAB, SBC and SAC at<br />

points G, I and O respectively. Let G be <strong>the</strong> intersection point <strong>of</strong> medians in <strong>the</strong> triangle<br />

SAB, I be <strong>the</strong> incenter <strong>of</strong> triangle SBC and O be <strong>the</strong> circumcenter <strong>of</strong> triangle SAC. Prove<br />

that <strong>the</strong> straight lines AI, BO and CG are concurrent. (V. Yasinskyy, Vinnytsya)<br />
