Barycentric Coordinates in Olympiad Geometry
problems with a formula sheet beside them. I’ve included Appendix B to facilitate these needs; I also have a version which includes just the formula sheet and the problems, which should be oating around. Happy bashing! 1For ABC counterclockwise, this is positive when P, Q and R are in counterclockwise order, and negative other-wise.

Math 55a Lecture Notes - Evan Chen
web.evanchen.ccX0 g? f 2-f 1 Lemma 2.2 In the above commutative diagram, if gis surjective then f 1 = f 2. Proof. Just use gto get everything equal. Yay. §2.3Groups De nition 2.3. A semi-group is a set Gendowed with an associative1 binary operation: G2!G. Lots of groups work. Example 2.4 (Star sh) Let Gbe an arbitrary set and x a g 0 2G. Then let ab= g 0 for ...
Math Olympiad Hardness Scale (MOHS) - Evan Chen
web.evanchen.cc2 Speci cation Here is what each of the possible ratings means.1 Rating 0M: Sub-IMO. Problems rated 0 are too easy to use at IMO. I can often imagine such a problem could be solved by a strong student in an honors math class, even without olympiad training. Rating 5M: Very easy. This is the easiest rating which could actually appear while

The OTIS Excerpts - Evan Chen
web.evanchen.ccIntroduction The book is divided into algebra, combinatorics, and number theory. We do not cover geometry, for which Euclidean Geometry in Mathematical Olympiads [Che16] already serves the role of “comprehensive book”. The twelve main chapters in this book are structured in to four sections.
Introduction to Functional Equations
web.evanchen.ccEvan Chen (October 18, 2016) Introduction to Functional Equations Remark 2.4. There are of course other approaches. Here is an outline of another one. After showing f is an involution, one can simultaneously let x = f(t), y = f(u) and instead obtain f(t2 + u) = tf(t) + f(u) (check this!). This quickly becomes a \Cauchy equation", see below ...
The Incenter/Excenter Lemma - Evan Chen
web.evanchen.ccmidpoint of arc BC. Show that L is the center of a circle through I, I A, B, C. A BC I L I A Proof. This is just angle chasing. Let A = \BAC, B = \CBA, C = \ACB, and note that A, I, L are collinear (as L is on the angle bisector). We are going to show that LB = LI, the other cases being similar. First, notice that \LBI = \LBC + \CBI = \LAC ...
