3. Iggy has a garden with length 234 feet and width 123 feet. Iggy decides to create a sidewalk of constant width
around the garden such that the area of the sidewalk is equal to the area of the garden. What is the largest
possible distance, in feet, between any two points on the sidewalk?
4. In the diagram below, the two congruent circles both have diameter 1 and the semicircle has radius 1. Also, the
two congruent circles and the semicircle are all tangent to each other, and the internal tangent of the two congruent
circles bisects the area of the semicircle. The radius of the dashed circle that is circumscribed about the two
congruent circles and the semicircle can be expressed in the form

6. A right circular cone is completely contained in a sphere. Let p be the maximum possible ratio of the volume of
the cone to the volume of the sphere and let q be the maximum possible ratio of the lateral surface area of the cone
to the surface area of the sphere. What is the value of
p

12. Iggy and Twiggy are creating problem proposals for their Mock AIME. Iggys question asks for the remainder
when a perfect square is divided by 1000, and Twiggys question asks for the remainder when a perfect fourth power
is divided by 1000. Let S
