Book excerpt: This book consists only of author-created problems with author-prepared solutions (never published before) and it is intended as a teacher's manual of mathematics, a self-study handbook for high-school students and mathematical competitors interested in AMC 12 (American Mathematics Competitions). The book teaches problem solving strategies and aids to improve problem solving skills. The book includes a list of the most useful theorems and formulas for AMC 12, it also includes 14 sets of author-created AMC 12 type practice tests (350 author-created AMC 12 type problems and their detailed solutions). National Math Competition Preparation (NMCP) program of RSM used part of these 14 sets of practice tests to train students for AMC 12, as a result 75 percent of NMCP high school students qualified for AIME. The authors provide both a list of answers for all 14 sets of author-created AMC 12 type practice tests and author-prepared solutions for each problem. About the authors: Hayk Sedrakyan is an IMO medal winner, professional mathematical Olympiad coach in greater Boston area, Massachusetts, USA. He is the Dean of math competition preparation department at RSM. He has been a Professor of mathematics in Paris and has a PhD in mathematics (optimal control and game theory) from the UPMC - Sorbonne University, Paris, France. Hayk is a Doctor of mathematical sciences in USA, France, Armenia and holds three master's degrees in mathematics from institutions in Germany, Austria, Armenia and has spent a small part of his PhD studies in Italy. Hayk Sedrakyan has worked as a scientific researcher for the European Commission (sadco project) and has been one of the Team Leaders at Harvard-MIT Mathematics Tournament (HMMT). He took part in the International Mathematical Olympiads (IMO) in United Kingdom, Japan and Greece. Hayk has been elected as the President of the students' general assembly and a member of the management board of Cite Internationale Universitaire de Paris (10,000 students, 162 different nationalities) and the same year they were nominated for the Nobel Peace Prize. Nairi Sedrakyan is involved in national and international mathematical Olympiads having been the President of Armenian Mathematics Olympiads and a member of the IMO problem selection committee. He is the author of the most difficult problem ever proposed in the history of the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), 5th problem of 37th IMO. This problem is considered to be the hardest problems ever in the IMO because none of the members of the strongest teams (national Olympic teams of China, USA, Russia) succeeded to solve it correctly and because national Olympic team of China (the strongest team in the IMO) obtained a cumulative result equal to 0 points and was ranked 6th in the final ranking of the countries instead of the usual 1st or 2nd place. The British 2014 film X+Y, released in the USA as A Brilliant Young Mind, inspired by the film Beautiful Young Minds (focuses on an English mathematical genius chosen to represent the United Kingdom at the IMO) also states that this problem is the hardest problem ever proposed in the history of the IMO (minutes 9:40-10:30). Nairi Sedrakyan's students (including his son Hayk Sedrakyan) have received 20 medals in the International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO), including Gold and Silver medals.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is the ninth book of problems and solutions from the American Mathematics Competitions (AMC) contests. It chronicles 325 problems from the thirteen AMC 12 contests given in the years between 2001 and 2007. The authors were the joint directors of the AMC 12 and the AMC 10 competitions during that period. The problems have all been edited to ensure that they conform to the current style of the AMC 12 competitions. Graphs and figures have been redrawn to make them more consistent in form and style, and the solutions to the problems have been both edited and supplemented. A problem index at the back of the book classifies the problems into subject areas of Algebra, Arithmetic, Complex Numbers, Counting, Functions, Geometry, Graphs, Logarithms, Logic, Number Theory, Polynomials, Probability, Sequences, Statistics, and Trigonometry. A problem that uses a combination of these areas is listed multiple times. The problems on these contests are posed by members of the mathematical community in the hope that all secondary school students will have an opportunity to participate in problem-solving and an enriching mathematical experience.

This book was released on 2020-10-26 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Any high school student preparing for the American Mathematics Competitions should get their hands on a copy of this book! A major aspect of mathematical training and its benefit to society is the ability to use logic to solve problems. The American Mathematics Competitions (AMC) have been given for more than fifty years to millions of high school students. This book considers the basic ideas behind the solutions to the majority of these problems, and presents examples and exercises from past exams to illustrate the concepts. Anyone taking the AMC exams or helping students prepare for them will find many useful ideas here. But people generally interested in logical problem solving should also find the problems and their solutions interesting. This book will promote interest in mathematics by providing students with the tools to attack problems that occur on mathematical problem-solving exams, and specifically to level the playing field for those who do not have access to the enrichment programs that are common at the top academic high schools. The book can be used either for self-study or to give people who want to help students prepare for mathematics exams easy access to topic-oriented material and samples of problems based on that material. This is useful for teachers who want to hold special sessions for students, but it is equally valuable for parents who have children with mathematical interest and ability. As students' problem solving abilities improve, they will be able to comprehend more difficult concepts requiring greater mathematical ingenuity. They will be taking their first steps towards becoming math Olympians!

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "102 Combinatorial Problems" consists of carefully selected problems that have been used in the training and testing of the USA International Mathematical Olympiad (IMO) team. Key features: * Provides in-depth enrichment in the important areas of combinatorics by reorganizing and enhancing problem-solving tactics and strategies * Topics include: combinatorial arguments and identities, generating functions, graph theory, recursive relations, sums and products, probability, number theory, polynomials, theory of equations, complex numbers in geometry, algorithmic proofs, combinatorial and advanced geometry, functional equations and classical inequalities The book is systematically organized, gradually building combinatorial skills and techniques and broadening the student's view of mathematics. Aside from its practical use in training teachers and students engaged in mathematical competitions, it is a source of enrichment that is bound to stimulate interest in a variety of mathematical areas that are tangential to combinatorics.
