Overview
This is the seventh book of problems and solutions from the Mathematics Competitions (published by the MAA. Contest Problem Book VII chronicles 275 problems from the American Mathematics Contests (AMC 12 and AMC 10 for the years 1995 through 2000, including the 50th Anniversary AHSME issued in 1999. Twenty-three additional problems with solutions are included. A Problem Index classifies the 275 problems in to the following subject areas: Algebra, Complex Numbers, Discrete Mathematics (including Counting Problems), Logic, and Discrete Probability, Geometry (including Three Dimensional Geometry), Number Theory (including Divisibility, Representation, and Modular Arithmetic), Statistics, and Trigonometry. For over 50 years many excellent exams have been prepared by individuals throughout our mathematical community in the hope that all secondary school students will have an opportunity to participate in these problem solving and enriching mathematics experiences. The American Mathematics Contests are intended for everyone from the average student at a typical school who enjoys mathematics to the very best student at the most special school.Synopsis
Questions asked at the US national mathematics competitions for high school seniors (AMC 12) and sophomores (AMC 10) during the five years are compiled, along with the correct multiple-choice answers and solutions--sometime several alternatives. They are designed for students ranging from average to whiz. The 275 problems are indexed by such subject areas as algebra, probability, geometry, and statistics.
