Problem 23

Let T be the triangle in the coordinate plane with vertices (0, 0), (4, 0), and (0, 3). Consider the following five isometries (rigid transformations) of the plane: rotations of 90°, 180° and 270° counterclockwise around the origin, reflection across the x-axis, and reflection across the y-axis. How many of the 125 sequences of three of these transformations (not necessarily distinct) will return T to its original position? (For example, a 180° rotation, followed by a reflection across the x-axis, followed by a reflection across the y-axis will return T to its original position, but a 90° rotation, followed by a reflection across the x-axis, followed by another reflection across the x-axis will not return T to its original position.)

Problem 24

Let n be the least positive integer greater than 1000 for which gcd(63, n + 120) = 21 and gcd(n + 63, 120) = 60. What is the sum of the digits of n?

Problem 25

Jason rolls three fair standard six-sided dice. Then he looks at the rolls and chooses a subset of the dice (possibly empty, possibly all three dice) to reroll. After rerolling, he wins if and only if the sum of the numbers face up on the three dice is exactly 7. Jason always plays to optimize his chances of winning. What is the probability that he chooses to reroll exactly two of the dice?
