Re: Some problems of last year divisionals, I need hel for
Assuming That $F$ is the midpoint. If We draw the circumcircle of $\triangle ABC$, $AC$ and $DE$ will be the Diameter of the circle. As $FE$ is perpendicular to $BC$, $\widehat {BE} = \widehat {EC} = \frac {\widehat {BC}}{2}$ . so, $\angle BAC=2 \cdot \angle BDE$. $\frac {(AB \sin \angle BAC)}{(BD \...

Re: Some problems of last year divisionals, I need hel for
More problems have arrived............ Dhaka Secondary 2012 $10.$ In the given diagram, both $ABC$ and $DBE$ are right triangles, $B$ being the right angle for both. They have hypotenuses of same length. $DE$ is perpendicular on $BC$. Area of $ABC$ is $\sqrt 3$ times of $DEF$. Find $\angle BDE$. Is...

2008 white stones and 1 black stone are in a row. An 'action' means the following: select one black stone and change the color of neighboring stone(s).
Find all possible initial position of the black stone, to make all stones black by finite actions.

Re: BdMO 2004 Secondary - 2(b)
I can't write latex well. so I am giving short solution with banglish.( can't know the english of some word)
bracket ar vitorer ongshe osim gunnottor dharar sutro proyog korle :
3(X^2+2X) = 2(1+2X+X^2)
and ata solve korle
X = -(1+root3) or root3 -1 answer ase
If i haven't done any mistake
