A wooden cube, whose edges are one centimeter long, rests on a horizontal surface. Illuminated by a point source of light that is centimeters directly above an upper vertex, the cube casts a shadow on the horizontal surface. The area of a shadow, which does not include the area beneath the cube is 48 square centimeters. Find the greatest integer that does not exceed
.

In a five-team tournament, each team plays one game with every other team. Each team has a chance of winning any game it plays. (There are no ties.) Let
be the probability that the tournament will produce neither an undefeated team nor a winless team, where
and

Two squares of a checkerboard are painted yellow, and the rest are painted green. Two color schemes are equivalent if one can be obtained from the other by applying a rotation in the plane board. How many inequivalent color schemes are possible?
The harmonic mean of two positive integers is the reciprocal of the arithmetic mean of their reciprocals. For how many ordered pairs of positive integers with

A bored student walks down a hall that contains a row of closed lockers, numbered 1 to 1024. He opens the locker numbered 1, and then alternates between skipping and opening each locker thereafter. When he reaches the end of the hall, the student turns around and starts back. He opens the first closed locker he encounters, and then alternates between skipping and opening each closed locker thereafter. The student continues wandering back and forth in this manner until every locker is open. What is the number of the last locker he opens?

There are for the first inequality,
for the second,
for the third, and
for the fourth, so the answer is
.
The probability that one team wins all games is .
Similarity, the probability that one team loses all games is .
The probability that one team wins all games and another team loses all games is .
Since this is the opposite of the probability we want, we subtract that from 1 to get .

For most pairs, there will be three other equivalent boards. |
For those symmetric about the center, there is only one other. |
Note that a pair of yellow squares will only yield distinct boards upon rotation iff the yellow squares are rotationally symmetric about the center square; there are
such pairs. There are then
pairs that yield
distinct boards upon rotation; in other words, for each of the
pairs, there are three other pairs that yield an equivalent board.
Thus, the number of inequivalent boards is . For a
board, this argument generalizes to
inequivalent configurations.
Since , multiplying both sides by
yields
.
Therefore, the smallest positive solution is .
(see cis).
Discarding the roots with negative imaginary parts (leaving us with ), we are left with
; their product is
.
The total number of permutations is , so the average value is
, and
.
Subtracting the two equations yields . Then
, and
.
The number of cubes the diagonal passes is equal to the number of points on the diagonal that has one or more positive integers as coordinates.
If we slice the solid up by the -planes defined by
, the diagonal will cut these
-planes exactly
times (plane of
is not considered since
). Similar arguments for slices along
-planes and
-planes give diagonal cuts of
, and
times respectively. The total cuts by the diagonal is therefore
, if we can ensure that no more than
positive integer is present in the x, y, or z coordinate in all points
on the diagonal. Note that point
is already one such exception.
But for each diagonal point with 2 (or more) positive integers occurring at the same time,
counts the number of cube passes as
instead of
for each such point. There are
points in such over-counting. We therefore subtract one time such over-counting from
.
And for each diagonal point with exactly
integers occurring at the same time,
counts the number of cube passes as
instead of
; ie
over-counts each of such points by
. But since
already subtracted three times for the case of
integers occurring at the same time (since there are
of these gcd terms that represent all combinations of 3 edges of a cube meeting at a vertex), we have the final count for each such point as
, where
is our correction term. That is, we need to add
time
back to account for the case of 3 simultaneous integers.
Therefore, the total diagonal cube passes is: .
For , we have:
,
,
,
.
Therefore .
Pythagorean and product-to-sum identities yield
and the double and triple angle () formulas further simplify this to
The only value of that fits in this context comes from
. The answer is
.
