Solutions Pamphlet

MAA American Mathematics Competitions

20th Annual

AMC 10A
American Mathematics Competition 10A
Thursday, February 7, 2019

This Pamphlet gives at least one solution for each problem on this year’s competition
and shows that all problems can be solved without the use of a calculator. When more
than one solution is provided, this is done to illustrate a significant contrast in methods,
e.g., algebraic versus geometric, computational versus conceptual, elementary versus
advanced. These solutions are by no means the only ones possible, nor are they superior
to others the reader may devise.
We hope that teachers will inform their students about these solutions, both as
illustrations of the kinds of ingenuity needed to solve nonroutine problems and as
examples of good mathematical exposition. Copies of the problem booklet and solution
pamphlet may be shared with your students for educational purposes. However, the
publication, reproduction, or communication of the problems or solutions for this
competition with anyone outside of the classroom is a violation of the competition rules.
This includes dissemination via copier, telephone, email, internet, or media of any type.
Correspondence about the problems/solutions for this AMC 10 and orders for any
publications should be addressed to:

The problems and solutions for this AMC 10 were prepared by
MAA’s Subcommittee on the AMC 10/AMC 12 Exams, under the direction of the
co-chairs Jerrold W. Grossman and Carl Yerger.
