0.1.2 PART 2. PROBLEMS SOLVING (3,0 points)

Write the solutions to the following problems in the provided space on your answer sheet.
Problem 1. (1,0 point)
To measure the height of the Cham temple tower Po Klong Garai in Ninh Thuan province (Figure 1), two
points A and B which are chosen on the ground with the length AB D 16 m and the bottom C of the tower
are collinear (Figure 2). Two total stations whose tripods have a height h D 1; 6 m are put at point A and
point B. Let D be the top of the tower and two points A1 ; B1 be collinear to C1 on height CD of the tower.

result to 3 decimal places.

Problem 3. Problem 3 (1,0 point). The sum of 2025 consecutive positive integers is a perfect square. Find
the minimum value of the largest of these integers?

ThS. Lê Tấn Phong Trang 4/ MATH – Grade 10

 Solution:

 Let a be the smallest positive integer of these integers. Then, these 2025 consecutive positive integers
are a; a C 1; a C 2; : : : ; a C 2024. The sum of these 2025 consecutive positive integers is
2025:2024

2

 Because 2025 D 452 and this sum is al perfect square, one has a C 1012 D n2 , where n is an integer.

 Since a D n2 1012 > 0, then n2 > 1012. It follows that n > 31. Thus, if n D 32, then a D 322 1012 D 12
is the smallest positive integer of these integers.

 Therefore, the minimum value of the largest of these integers is a C 2024 D 12 C 2024 D 2036.
