Problem: While watching a show, Ayako, Billy, Carlos, Dahlia, Ehuang, and Frank sat in that order in a row of six chairs. During the break, they went to the kitchen for a snack. When they came back, they sat on those six chairs in such a way that if two of them sat next to each other before the break, then they did not sit next to each other after the break. Find the number of possible seating orders they could have chosen after the break.

Solution: We proceed with casework based on the person who sits first after the break.
$\textbf{Case 1:}$ A is first. Then the first three people in the row can be ACE, ACF, ADB, ADF, AEB, AEC, AFB, AFC, or AFD, which yield 2, 1, 2, 2, 1, 2, 0, 1, and 1 possible configurations, respectively, implying 2 + 1 + 2 + 2 + 1 + 2 + 0 + 1 + 1 = 12 possible configurations in this case.
$\textbf{Case 2:}$ B is first. Then the first three people in the row can be BDA, BDF, BEA, BEC, BFA, BFC, or BFD, which yield 2, 4, 2, 4, 0, 1, and 2 possible configurations, respectively, implying 2 + 4 + 2 + 4 + 0 + 1 + 2 = 15 possible configurations in this case.
$\textbf{Case 3:}$ C is first. Then the first three people in the row can be CAD, CAE, CAF, CEA, CEB, CFA, CFB, or CFD, which yield 1, 2, 1, 4, 4, 2, 2, and 2 possible configurations, respectively, implying 1 + 2 + 1 + 4 + 4 + 2 + 2 + 2 = 18 possible configurations in this case.
Finally, the number of valid configurations for A and F, B and E, and C and D are equal by symmetry, so our final answer is 2(12 + 15 + 18), which computes to be $\boxed{090}.$ ~peace09

Problem: While watching a show, Ayako, Billy, Carlos, Dahlia, Ehuang, and Frank sat in that order in a row of six chairs. During the break, they went to the kitchen for a snack. When they came back, they sat on those six chairs in such a way that if two of them sat next to each other before the break, then they did not sit next to each other after the break. Find the number of possible seating orders they could have chosen after the break.

Solution: We determine the order of A, B, C, relative to each other. Then, we will insert D, E, F into the alignment and calculate the total number of possibilities. This solution can be visualised as standing in lines rather than sitting on chairs.
There are 6 possible alignments for A, B, and C, but we only evaluate 3 because the other 3 cases can be mirrored to overlap these 3 cases.
$\textbf{Case 1: A B C}$ In this case, there must be a person standing between A and B and also between B and C. Also, D cannot be adjacent to C. There are 9 possibilities.
$\textbf{Case 2: A C B}$ In this case, there must be a person standing between B and C. Also, D cannot be adjacent to C. There are 12 possibilities.
$\textbf{Case 3: C A B}$ In this case, there must be a person standing between A and B. Also, D cannot be adjacent to C. There are 24 possibilities.
So the total number of cases is 2(9+12+24)= $\boxed{090}$

Find the number of possible seating orders they could have chosen after the break.

Solution: Consider arrangements of numbers $1, 2, 3, ..., n$
Let $f(n,k)$ be the number of arrangements in which $1$ and $2$ $2$ and $3$ $3$ and $4$ , ..., $k-1$ and $k$ aren't together. We need to find $f(6,6)$
Let $d(n,k)$ be the number of arrangements in which $1$ and $2$ $2$ and $3$ $3$ and $4$ , ..., $k-2$ and $k-1$ aren't together, but $(k-1)$ and $k$ are together.
Then,
\[f(n,k+1) = f(n,k) - d(n,k+1)  ......(1)\]
\[d(n,k+1) = 2f(n-1,k) + d(n-1,k)  ......(2)\]
Hence, \[f(n,k+1)=f(n,k)-f(n-1,k)-f(n-1,k-1)\]
And because $f(n,0) = f(n,1) = n!$ , it's easy to get $f(6,6) = \boxed{090}$

Problem: Find the sum of all positive integers $n$ such that when $1^3+2^3+3^3+\cdots +n^3$ is divided by $n+5$ , the remainder is $17$

Solution: The formula for the sum of cubes, also known as Nicomachus's Theorem, is as follows: \[1^3+2^3+3^3+\dots+k^3=(1+2+3+\dots+k)^2=\left(\frac{k(k+1)}{2}\right)^2\] for any positive integer $k$
So let's apply this to this problem.
Let $m=n+5$ . Then we have \begin{align*} 1^3+2^3+3^3+\dots+(m-5)^3&\equiv 17 \mod m \\ \left(\frac{(m-5)(m-4)}{2}\right)^2&\equiv 17 \mod m \\ \left(\dfrac{m(m-9)+20}2\right)^2&\equiv 17\mod m \\ \left(\dfrac{20}2\right)^2&\equiv 17\mod m \\ \frac{400}{4}&\equiv 17 \mod m \\ 332 &\equiv 0 \mod m \\ \end{align*} So, $m\in\{83,166,332\}$ . Testing the cases, only $332$ fails. This leaves $78+161=\boxed{239}$

Problem: Find the sum of all positive integers $n$ such that when $1^3+2^3+3^3+\cdots +n^3$ is divided by $n+5$ , the remainder is $17$

Solution: Using the formula for $\sum_{k=1}^n  k^3$ \[1^3 + 2^3 + 3^3 + ... + n^3 = \frac{n^2(n+1)^2}{4}\] Since $1^3 + 2^3 + 3^3 + ... + n^3$ divided by $n + 5$ has a remainder of $17$ \[\frac{n^2(n+1)^2}{4} \equiv 17\pmod {n + 5}\] Using the rules of modular arithmetic, \[n^2(n+1)^2 \equiv 68\pmod {n + 5}\] \[n^2(n+1)^2 - 68\equiv 0\pmod {n + 5}\] Expanding the left hand side, \[n^4 + 2 n^3 + n^2 - 68\equiv 0\pmod {n + 5}\] This means that $n^4 + 2 n^3 + n^2 - 68$ is divisible by ${n + 5}$
\[(n + 5) | (n^4 + 2 n^3 + n^2 - 68)\] Dividing polynomials, \[\frac{n^4 + 2 n^3 + n^2 - 68}{n + 5}\] \[= n^3 - 3 n^2 + 16n - 80 + \frac{332}{(n + 5)}\] $(n + 5)$ $|$ $(n^4 + 2 n^3 + n^2 - 68)$ $\iff$ $\frac{332}{(n + 5)}$ $\in$ $\mathbb{Z}$ $\frac{332}{(n + 5)}$ $\in$ $\mathbb{Z}$ $\iff$ $(n + 5) = \pm 1, \pm 2, \pm 4, \pm 83, \pm 166, \pm 332$ Note that $n$ $\in$ $\mathbb{N}$ and $n + 5 > 17$ (because the remainder when dividing by $n + 5$ is $17$ , so $n + 5$ must be greater than $17$ ), so all options $\leq 17$ can be eliminated. \[(n + 5) = 83, 166, 332\] \[n = 78, 161, 327\] Checking all 3 cases, $n = 78$ and $n = 161$ work; $n = 327$ fails. Therefore, the answer is $78 + 161 = \boxed{239} ~

Problem: Find the sum of all positive integers $n$ such that when $1^3+2^3+3^3+\cdots +n^3$ is divided by $n+5$ , the remainder is $17$

Solution: As before, we note that $(5+a)^3 + (n-a)^3 \equiv (5+a)^3 - (n+5 - (n-a))^3 \equiv 0 \pmod {n+5}.$ Thus, we can pair up the terms from $5^3$ to $n^3$ and cancel them. We have to deal with two cases:
If $n$ is even, then $5^3+6^3 + \cdots + n^3 \equiv 0 \pmod {n+5},$ as there are an even number of terms and they pair and cancel. We thus get $1^2+2^3+3^3+4^3 = 100 \equiv 17 \pmod {n+5},$ or $(n+5) | 83,$ which yields $n=78.$
If $n$ is odd, then $1^3+2^3+\cdots + n^3 \equiv 1^3+2^3+3^3+4^3+\left( \frac{n+5}{2} \right)^3 \equiv 17 \pmod {n+5}.$ Letting $k = \frac{n+5}{2}$ yields $k^2 + 83 \equiv 0 \pmod {2k}.$ However, this means that $83$ is divisible by $k,$ so $k=1,83.$ Plugging this back into $n$ yields $n=2(83)-5 = 161$ in the latter case.
Thus, the sum of all possible $n$ is just $78+161 = \boxed{239}.$

Problem: Let $P(x) = x^2 - 3x - 7$ , and let $Q(x)$ and $R(x)$ be two quadratic polynomials also with the coefficient of $x^2$ equal to $1$ . David computes each of the three sums $P + Q$ $P + R$ , and $Q + R$ and is surprised to find that each pair of these sums has a common root, and these three common roots are distinct. If $Q(0) = 2$ , then $R(0) = \frac{m}{n}$ , where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m + n$

Solution: Let $Q(x) = x^2 + ax + 2$ and $R(x) = x^2 + bx + c$ .  We can write the following: \[P + Q = 2x^2 + (a - 3)x - 5\] \[P + R = 2x^2 + (b - 3)x + (c - 7)\] \[Q + R = 2x^2 + (a + b)x + (c + 2)\] Let the common root of $P+Q,P+R$ be $r$ $P+R,Q+R$ be $s$ ; and $P+Q,Q+R$ be $t$ .  We then have that the roots of $P+Q$ are $r,t$ , the roots of $P + R$ are $r, s$ , and the roots of $Q + R$ are $s,t$
By Vieta's, we have: \[r + t = \dfrac{3 - a}{2}\tag{1}\] \[r + s = \dfrac{3 - b}{2}\tag{2}\] \[s + t = \dfrac{-a - b}{2}\tag{3}\] \[rt = \dfrac{-5}{2}\tag{4}\] \[rs = \dfrac{c - 7}{2}\tag{5}\] \[st = \dfrac{c + 2}{2}\tag{6}\]
Subtracting $(3)$ from $(1)$ , we get $r - s = \dfrac{3 + b}{2}$ .  Adding this to $(2)$ , we get $2r = 3 \implies r = \dfrac{3}{2}$ .  This gives us that $t = \dfrac{-5}{3}$ from $(4)$ .  Substituting these values into $(5)$ and $(6)$ , we get $s = \dfrac{c-7}{3}$ and $s = \dfrac{-3c - 6}{10}$ .  Equating these values, we get $\dfrac{c-7}{3} = \dfrac{-3c-6}{10} \implies c = \dfrac{52}{19} = R(0)$ .  Thus, our answer is $52 + 19 = \boxed{071}$ . ~ TopNotchMath

Problem: Let $P(x) = x^2 - 3x - 7$ , and let $Q(x)$ and $R(x)$ be two quadratic polynomials also with the coefficient of $x^2$ equal to $1$ . David computes each of the three sums $P + Q$ $P + R$ , and $Q + R$ and is surprised to find that each pair of these sums has a common root, and these three common roots are distinct. If $Q(0) = 2$ , then $R(0) = \frac{m}{n}$ , where $m$ and $n$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $m + n$

Solution: We know that $P(x)=x^2-3x-7$
Since $Q(0)=2$ , the constant term in $Q(x)$ is $2$ . Let $Q(x)=x^2+ax+2$
Finally, let $R(x)=x^2+bx+c$
$P(x)+Q(x)=2x^2+(a-3)x-5$ . Let its roots be $p$ and $q$
$P(x)+R(x)=2x^2+(b-3)x+(c-7)$ Let its roots be $p$ and $r$
$Q(x)+R(x)=2x^2+(a+b)x+(c+2)$ . Let its roots be $q$ and $r$
By vietas, $p+q=\frac{3-a}{2}, p+r=\frac{3-b}{2}, q+r=\frac{-(a+b)}{2}$
We could work out the system of equations, but it's pretty easy to see that $p=\frac32, q=-\frac{a}{2}, r=-\frac{b}{2}$
$\text{Again, by vietas, }pq=-\frac52\text{, } pr=\frac{c-7}{2}\text{, } qr=\frac{c+2}{2}\text{, } \text{multiplying everything together a}\text{nd taking the sqrt of both sides,}$ \[(pqr)^2=\left(-\frac52\right)\left(\frac{c-7}{2}\right)\left(\frac{c+2}{2}\right)\] \[pqr=\sqrt{\left(-\frac52\right)\left(\frac{c-7}{2}\right)\left(\frac{c+2}{2}\right)}\] $\text{Dividing this }\text{equation by }qr=\frac{c+2}{2}$ \[\frac{pqr}{qr}=\frac{\sqrt{\left(-\frac52\right)\left(\frac{c-7}{2}\right)\left(\frac{c+2}{2}\right)}}{\frac{c+2}{2}}\] \[p = \frac{\sqrt{\left(-\frac52\right)\left(\frac{c-7}{2}\right)}}{\sqrt{\frac{c+2}{2}}}\] $\text{Recall th}\text{at }p=\frac32 \text{ and square both sides}$ \[\frac94=\frac{\left(-\frac52\right)\left(\frac{c-7}{2}\right)}{\frac{c+2}{2}}\] $\text{Solving gives } c=\frac{52}{19}, \text{ so our answer is }\boxed{071}$

Problem: Let $m$ and $n$ be odd integers greater than $1.$ An $m\times n$ rectangle is made up of unit squares where the squares in the top row are numbered left to right with the integers $1$ through $n$ , those in the second row are numbered left to right with the integers $n + 1$ through $2n$ , and so on. Square $200$ is in the top row, and square $2000$ is in the bottom row. Find the number of ordered pairs $(m,n)$ of odd integers greater than $1$ with the property that, in the $m\times n$ rectangle, the line through the centers of squares $200$ and $2000$ intersects the interior of square $1099$

Solution: Let us take some cases. Since $m$ and $n$ are odds, and $200$ is in the top row and $2000$ in the bottom, $m$ has to be $3$ $5$ $7$ , or $9$ . Also, taking a look at the diagram, the slope of the line connecting those centers has to have an absolute value of $< 1$ . Therefore, $m < 1800 \mod n < 1800-m$
If $m=3$ $n$ can range from $667$ to $999$ . However, $900$ divides $1800$ , so looking at mods, we can easily eliminate $899$ and $901$ . Now, counting these odd integers, we get $167 - 2 = 165$
Similarly, let $m=5$ . Then $n$ can range from $401$ to $499$ . However, $450|1800$ , so one can remove $449$ and $451$ . Counting odd integers, we get $50 - 2 = 48$
Take $m=7$ . Then, $n$ can range from $287$ to $333$ . However, $300|1800$ , so one can verify and eliminate $299$ and $301$ . Counting odd integers, we get $24 - 2 = 22$
Let $m = 9$ . Then $n$ can vary from $223$ to $249$ . However, $225|1800$ . Checking that value and the values around it, we can eliminate $225$ . Counting odd integers, we get $14 - 1 = 13$
Add all of our cases to get \[165+48+22+13 = \boxed{248}\]

Problem: Convex pentagon $ABCDE$ has side lengths $AB=5$ $BC=CD=DE=6$ , and $EA=7$ . Moreover, the pentagon has an inscribed circle (a circle tangent to each side of the pentagon). Find the area of $ABCDE$

Solution: Assume the incircle touches $AB$ $BC$ $CD$ $DE$ $EA$ at $P,Q,R,S,T$ respectively. Then let $PB=x=BQ=RD=SD$ $ET=y=ES=CR=CQ$ $AP=AT=z$ . So we have $x+y=6$ $x+z=5$ and $y+z$ =7, solve it we have $x=2$ $z=3$ $y=4$ . Let the center of the incircle be $I$ , by SAS we can proof triangle $BIQ$ is congruent to triangle $DIS$ , and triangle $CIR$ is congruent to triangle $SIE$ . Then we have $\angle AED=\angle BCD$ $\angle ABC=\angle CDE$ . Extend $CD$ , cross ray $AB$ at $M$ , ray $AE$ at $N$ , then by AAS we have triangle $END$ is congruent to triangle $BMC$ . Thus $\angle M=\angle N$ . Let $EN=MC=a$ , then $BM=DN=a+2$ . So by law of cosine in triangle $END$ and triangle $ANM$ we can obtain \[\frac{2a+8}{2(a+7)}=\cos N=\frac{a^2+(a+2)^2-36}{2a(a+2)}\] , solved it gives us $a=8$ , which yield triangle $ANM$ to be a triangle with side length 15, 15, 24, draw a height from $A$ to $NM$ divides it into two triangles with side lengths 9, 12, 15, so the area of triangle $ANM$ is 108. Triangle $END$ is a triangle with side lengths 6, 8, 10, so the area of two of them is 48, so the area of pentagon is $108-48=\boxed{60}$

Answer:  60
Problem: Convex pentagon $ABCDE$ has side lengths $AB=5$ $BC=CD=DE=6$ , and $EA=7$ . Moreover, the pentagon has an inscribed circle (a circle tangent to each side of the pentagon). Find the area of $ABCDE$

Solution: Suppose that the circle intersects $\overline{AB}$ $\overline{BC}$ $\overline{CD}$ $\overline{DE}$ , and $\overline{EA}$ at $P$ $Q$ $R$ $S$ , and $T$ respectively. Then $AT = AP = a$ $BP = BQ = b$ $CQ = CR = c$ $DR = DS = d$ , and $ES = ET = e$ . So $a + b = 5$ $b + c = 6$ $c + d = 6$ $d + e = 6$ , and $e + a = 7$ . Then $2a + 2b + 2c + 2d + 2e = 30$ , so $a + b + c + d + e= 15$ . Then we can solve for each individually. $a = 3$ $b = 2$ $c = 4$ $d = 2$ , and $e = 4$ . To find the radius, we notice that $4 \arctan(\frac{2}{r}) + 4 \arctan(\frac{4}{r}) + 2 \arctan (\frac{3}{r}) = 360 ^ \circ$ , or $2 \arctan(\frac{2}{r}) + 2 \arctan(\frac{4}{r}) + \arctan (\frac{3}{r}) = 180 ^ \circ$ . Each of these angles in this could be represented by complex numbers. When two complex numbers are multiplied, their angles add up to create the angle of the resulting complex number. Thus, $(r + 2i)^2 \cdot (r + 4i)^2 \cdot (r + 3i)$ is real. Expanding, we get:
\[(r^2 + 4ir - 4)(r^2 + 8ir -16)(r + 3i)\]
\[(r^4 + 12ir^3 - 52r^2 - 96ir + 64)(r + 3i)\]
On the last expanding, we only multiply the reals with the imaginaries and vice versa, because we only care that the imaginary component equals 0.
\[15ir^4 - 252ir^2 + 192i = 0\]
\[5r^4 - 84r^2 + 64 = 0\]
\[(5r^2 - 4)(r^2 - 16) = 0\]
$r$ must equal 4, as r cannot be negative or be approximately equal to 1. 
Thus, the area of $ABCDE$ is $4 \cdot (a + b + c + d + e) = 4 \cdot 15 = \boxed{60}$

Problem: Convex pentagon $ABCDE$ has side lengths $AB=5$ $BC=CD=DE=6$ , and $EA=7$ . Moreover, the pentagon has an inscribed circle (a circle tangent to each side of the pentagon). Find the area of $ABCDE$

Solution: This pentagon is very close to a regular pentagon with side lengths $6$ . The area of a regular pentagon with side lengths $s$ is $\frac{5s^2}{4\sqrt{5-2\sqrt{5}}}$ $5-2\sqrt{5}$ is slightly greater than $\frac{1}{2}$ given that $2\sqrt{5}$ is slightly less than $\frac{9}{2}$ $4\sqrt{5-2\sqrt{5}}$ is then slightly greater than $2\sqrt{2}$ . We will approximate that to be $2.9$ . The area is now roughly $\frac{180}{2.9}$ , but because the actual pentagon is not regular, but has the same perimeter of the regular one that we are comparing to we can say that this is an overestimate on the area and turn the $2.9$ into $3$ thus turning the area into $\frac{180}{3}$ which is $60$ and since $60$ is a multiple of the semiperimeter $15$ , we can safely say that the answer is most likely $\boxed{60}$

Answer:  60
Problem: For a real number $x$ let $\lfloor x\rfloor$ be the greatest integer less than or equal to $x$ , and define $\{x\} = x - \lfloor x \rfloor$ to be the fractional part of $x$ . For example, $\{3\} = 0$ and $\{4.56\} = 0.56$ . Define $f(x)=x\{x\}$ , and let $N$ be the number of real-valued solutions to the equation $f(f(f(x)))=17$ for $0\leq x\leq 2020$ . Find the remainder when $N$ is divided by $1000$

Solution: To solve $f(f(f(x)))=17$ , we need to solve $f(x) = y$ where $f(f(y))=17$ , and to solve that we need to solve $f(y) = z$ where $f(z) = 17$
It is clear to see for some integer $a \geq 17$ there is exactly one value of $z$ in the interval $[a, a+1)$ where $f(z) = 17$ . To understand this, imagine the graph of $f(z)$ on the interval $[a, a+1)$ The graph starts at $0$ , is continuous and increasing, and approaches $a+1$ . So as long as $a+1 > 17$ , there will be a solution for $z$ in the interval.
Using this logic, we can find the number of solutions to $f(x) = y$ . For every interval $[a, a+1)$ where $a \geq \left \lfloor{y}\right \rfloor$ there will be one solution for $x$ in that interval. However, the question states $0 \leq x \leq 2020$ , but because $x=2020$ doesn't work we can change it to $0 \leq x < 2020$ . Therefore, $\left \lfloor{y}\right \rfloor  \leq a \leq 2019$ , and there are $2020 - \left \lfloor{y}\right \rfloor$ solutions to $f(x) = y$
We can solve $f(y) = z$ similarly. $0 \leq y < 2020$ to satisfy the bounds of $x$ , so there are $2020 - \left \lfloor{z}\right \rfloor$ solutions to $f(y) = z$ , and $0 \leq z < 2020$ to satisfy the bounds of $y$
Going back to $f(z) = 17$ , there is a single solution for z in the interval $[a, a+1)$ , where $17 \leq a \leq 2019$ . (We now have an upper bound for $a$ because we know $z < 2020$ .) There are $2003$ solutions for $z$ , and the floors of these solutions create the sequence $17, 18, 19, ..., 2018, 2019$
Lets first look at the solution of $z$ where $\left \lfloor{z}\right \rfloor = 17$ . Then $f(y) = z$ would have $2003$ solutions, and the floors of these solutions would also create the sequence $17, 18, 19, ..., 2018, 2019$
If we used the solution of $y$ where $\left \lfloor{y}\right \rfloor = 17$ , there would be $2003$ solutions for $f(x) = y$ . If we used the solution of $y$ where $\left \lfloor{y}\right \rfloor = 18$ , there would be $2002$ solutions for $x$ , and so on. So for the solution of $z$ where $\left \lfloor{z}\right \rfloor = 17$ , there will be $2003 + 2002 + 2001 + ... + 2 + 1 = \binom{2004}{2}$ solutions for $x$
If we now look at the solution of $z$ where $\left \lfloor{z}\right \rfloor = 18$ , there would be $\binom{2003}{2}$ solutions for $x$ . If we looked at the solution of $z$ where $\left \lfloor{z}\right \rfloor = 19$ , there would be $\binom{2002}{2}$ solutions for $x$ , and so on.
The total number of solutions to $x$ is $\binom{2004}{2} + \binom{2003}{2} + \binom{2002}{2} + ... + \binom{3}{2} + \binom{2}{2}$ . Using the hockey stick theorem, we see this equals $\binom{2005}{3}$ , and when we take the remainder of that number when divided by $1000$ , we get the answer, $\boxed{10}$

Problem: Let $\triangle ABC$ be an acute scalene triangle with circumcircle $\omega$ . The tangents to $\omega$ at $B$ and $C$ intersect at $T$ . Let $X$ and $Y$ be the projections of $T$ onto lines $AB$ and $AC$ , respectively. Suppose $BT = CT = 16$ $BC = 22$ , and $TX^2 + TY^2 + XY^2 = 1143$ . Find $XY^2$

Solution: Let $O$ be the circumcenter of $\triangle ABC$ ; say $OT$ intersects $BC$ at $M$ ; draw segments $XM$ , and $YM$ .  We have $MT=3\sqrt{15}$
Since $\angle A=\angle CBT=\angle BCT$ , we have $\cos A=\tfrac{11}{16}$ . Notice that $AXTY$ is cyclic, so $\angle XTY=180^{\circ}-A$ , so $\cos XTY=-\cos A$ , and the cosine law in $\triangle TXY$ gives \[1143-2XY^2=-\frac{11}{8}\cdot XT\cdot YT.\]
Since $\triangle BMT \cong \triangle CMT$ , we have $TM\perp BC$ , and therefore quadrilaterals $BXTM$ and $CYTM$ are cyclic. Let $P$ (resp. $Q$ ) be the midpoint of $BT$ (resp. $CT$ ). So $P$ (resp. $Q$ ) is the center of $(BXTM)$ (resp. $CYTM$ ). Then $\theta=\angle ABC=\angle MTX$ and $\phi=\angle ACB=\angle YTM$ . So $\angle XPM=2\theta$ , so \[\frac{\frac{XM}{2}}{XP}=\sin \theta,\] which yields $XM=2XP\sin \theta=BT(=CT)\sin \theta=TY$ . Similarly we have $YM=XT$
Ptolemy's theorem in $BXTM$ gives \[16TY=11TX+3\sqrt{15}BX,\] while Pythagoras' theorem gives $BX^2+XT^2=16^2$ . Similarly, Ptolemy's theorem in $YTMC$ gives \[16TX=11TY+3\sqrt{15}CY\] while Pythagoras' theorem in $\triangle CYT$ gives $CY^2+YT^2=16^2$ . Solve this for $XT$ and $TY$ and substitute into the equation about $\cos XTY$ to obtain the result $XY^2=\boxed{717}$

Answer:  717
Problem: Let $\triangle ABC$ be an acute scalene triangle with circumcircle $\omega$ . The tangents to $\omega$ at $B$ and $C$ intersect at $T$ . Let $X$ and $Y$ be the projections of $T$ onto lines $AB$ and $AC$ , respectively. Suppose $BT = CT = 16$ $BC = 22$ , and $TX^2 + TY^2 + XY^2 = 1143$ . Find $XY^2$

Solution: Let $M$ denote the midpoint of $\overline{BC}$ . The critical claim is that $M$ is the orthocenter of $\triangle AXY$ , which has the circle with diameter $\overline{AT}$ as its circumcircle. To see this, note that because $\angle BXT = \angle BMT = 90^\circ$ , the quadrilateral $MBXT$ is cyclic, it follows that \[\angle MXA = \angle MXB = \angle MTB = 90^\circ - \angle TBM = 90^\circ - \angle A,\] implying that $\overline{MX} \perp \overline{AC}$ . Similarly, $\overline{MY} \perp \overline{AB}$ . In particular, $MXTY$ is a parallelogram.

Therefore \[XY^2 = \frac13(2 \cdot 1143-135) = \boxed{717}.\]
