Q1.

Let $x$ and $y$ be real numbers such that $\frac{\sin x}{\sin y} = 3$ and $\frac{\cos x}{\cos y} = \frac12$. The value of $\frac{\sin 2x}{\sin 2y} + \frac{\cos 2x}{\cos 2y}$ can be expressed in the form $\frac pq$, where $p$ and $q$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $p+q$.

Answer must be a floating-point or integer value and precision error less than 10^-6 is allowed.

Q3.

Let $z=a+bi$ be the complex number with $\vert z \vert = 5$ and $b > 0$ such that the distance between $(1+2i)z^3$ and $z^5$ is maximized, and let $z^4 = c+di$. Find $c+d$.

Q4.

In the accompanying figure, the outer square $S$ has side length $40$. A second square $S'$ of side length $15$ is constructed inside $S$ with the same center as $S$ and with sides parallel to those of $S$. From each midpoint of a side of $S$, segments are drawn to the two closest vertices of $S'$. The result is a four-pointed starlike figure inscribed in $S$. The star figure is cut out and then folded to form a pyramid with base $S'$. Find the volume of this pyramid.

[asy] pair S1 = (20, 20), S2 = (-20, 20), S3 = (-20, -20), S4 = (20, -20); pair M1 = (S1+S2)/2, M2 = (S2+S3)/2, M3=(S3+S4)/2, M4=(S4+S1)/2; pair Sp1 = (7.5, 7.5), Sp2=(-7.5, 7.5), Sp3 = (-7.5, -7.5), Sp4 = (7.5, -7.5); draw(S1--S2--S3--S4--cycle); draw(Sp1--Sp2--Sp3--Sp4--cycle); draw(Sp1--M1--Sp2--M2--Sp3--M3--Sp4--M4--cycle); [/asy]
