IMO 2005

All six questions of the International Mathematical Olympiad in Merida, Mexico. This was the IMO which was nearly devastated by a hurricane. Fortunately the storm veered at the last moment, and the town was saved. The problems and solutions are discussed, and hints are given. This was the IMO in which Boreico won a a special prize from the jury for his solution to the inequality problem. His solution is discussed.

Licences

This material is extremely compact, and we do not expect it to be viewed at a single sitting. Rather an able student will want to watch a short section of it, and then do relevant exercises downloaded from the Highperception home page, perhaps over a week.

The price above is for a single user licence. If you need a school site licence, entitling you to put the material on a school intranet, or otherwise to view it on more than one screen at a time, then indicate this when you put it in your basket. The price of a DVD with a school site licence is only double that of a DVD with a single user licence.

DVD viewing

This DVD is designed for viewing on a computer screen. If you want to try to view it on a TV, see the link marked `details' in the Highperception home page.
