内容简介

For over fifty years, the Mathematical Association of America (MAA) has been engaged in the construction and administration of challenging contests for students in American and Canadian high schools at every level of ability. In the year 2000 the MAA initiated the American Mathematics Competitions 10 (AMC 10), aimed at students in the first two years of high school. The Contest Problem Book VIII is the first collection of problems assembled from that competition covering the years 2001-2007. 350 problems and solutions are contained in this volume. A Problem Index at the back of the book classifies the problems into the following major subject areas: Algebra and Arithmetic, Sequences and Series, Triangle Geometry, Circle Geometry, Quadrilateral Geometry, Polygon Geometry, Counting Coordinate Geometry, Solid Geometry, Discrete Probability, Statistics, Number Theory, and Logic. These are then broken down into subcategories and problems are cross-referenced whenever they represent several subject areas.

He is currently a member of the MAA's Undergraduate Research and Undergraduate Student Activities Committees and he was the National Director of the AMC 10 Competition of the American Mathematics Competitions until 2007. Faires has been the recipient of many awards and honors. He was named the Outstanding College-University Teacher of Mathematics by the Ohio Section of the MAA in 1996; he has also received five Distinguished Professorship awards from Youngstown State University, and an honorary Doctorate of Science Degree in May 2006. David Wells received a Ph.D. in mathematics from the University of Pittsburgh in 1973. He taught at Ohio Dominican University for six years and has been at the New Kensington campus of Penn State University since 1979. During his career at Penn State he has received both the Teresa Cohen Service Award from the New Kensington Campus.
