2006 ARMLSuper Relay
1. Currently, Arnold is 3x years old and his younger sister Millie is x years old. When Millie was born,
Arnold was 16 years old. Compute Arnold's age 10 years from now.
2. Let T = TNYWR. A right circular cylinder has a radius of r, a height of Tr , and a total surface area of 420! .
Compute r.
5. Let T = TNYWR. A class has T boys and T girls and the heights of all the students are different. Compute the
number of ways to arrange the students in a row such that all of the following conditions hold: (i) the boys are
not all standing next to each other, (ii) from left to right the boys are arranged from shortest to tallest, and (iii)
from left to right the girls are neither arranged from shortest to tallest, nor from tallest to shortest.
7. Let T = TNYWR. Compute the maximum value of the function f (x) = 4 sin 2 x + (T ! 2)cos x + 34 .
15. Let a1 = 1, a2 = 11, a3 = 111, a4 = 1111 , and so on. Compute the smallest value of n so that an is a
multiple of n + 1 .
14. Let T = TNYWR. In the figure, !ABC is a right angle and D is the midpoint A
of BC . If AB = BC = 12 and BE = T , compute BF 2 .
E F
B C
D
12. Let T = TNYWR. Arrange T women and T men into T rows of 2 people so that each row contains 1 woman and
1 man. Let 2 K be the highest power of 2 that is a factor of the number of ways to do this. Compute K.
11. Let T = TNYWR. Two candles of height T cm are lit. One burns down three times as fast as the other and
after T minutes, it is 1/5 as tall as the other. Compute the height in cm of the fast burner after the T minutes.
10. Let T = TNYWR. A regular polygon of T + 1 sides has a side length of 1, an area of K, and a perimeter of P.
Compute P/K.
9. Let T = TNYWR. Triangle ABC is given with BC = 2006. Circle O is inscribed in !ABC , it is tangent to
AB at D and it has a radius of 1 / T 2 . If AD = 10 , compute the area of !ABC .
8. To the right is a magic square in which the sums of the elements in the rows, 30
columns, and diagonals are all equal. Let R be the number you receive from
27 R
position 7 and T be the number you receive from position 9. Compute X.
