Participants are supposed to have sufficient knowledge of methods of polynomial transformations, solving linear and quadratic equations, inequalities and their sets, as well as text tasks. You also should have general ideas of equations of higher degrees. Knowing the concept of function, its domain, range and fundamental properties may be useful, too. General ideas about prime numbers, decomposing numbers by prime factors are also needed. You should understand what GCD and LCM, their characteristics and search algorithms are. Knowledge of divisibility by 2, 3, 5, 8, 9 may be needed. In terms of geometry, doctrines within congruence and similitude of triangles, parallel straight lines properties, as well as properties of triangles, quadrilaterals and polygons, circles, tangents to the circles, their secant lines and inscribed angles are used. It is believed that contestants can find the main triangle elements with the use of trigonometry. Non-standard thinking and creative mathematical approach are supposed to be used in each task.
