AIME 2004b Problem 7

  • Paper
  • Answer

ABCDABCD is a rectangular sheet of paper that has been folded so that corner BB is matched with point B′B' on edge AD.AD. The crease is EF,EF, where EE is on ABAB and FF is on CD.CD. The dimensions AE=8,BE=17,AE=8, BE=17, and CF=3CF=3 are given. The perimeter of rectangle ABCDABCD is m/n,m/n, where mm and nn are relatively prime positive integers. Find m+n.m+n. [asy] size(200); defaultpen(linewidth(0.7)+fontsize(10)); pair A=origin, B=(25,0), C=(25,70/3), D=(0,70/3), E=(8,0), F=(22,70/3), Bp=reflect(E,F)*B, Cp=reflect(E,F)*C; draw(F--D--A--E); draw(E--B--C--F, linetype("4 4")); filldraw(E--F--Cp--Bp--cycle, white, black); pair point=( 12.5, 35/3 ); label("AA", A, dir(point--A)); label("BB", B, dir(point--B)); label("CC", C, dir(point--C)); label("DD", D, dir(point--D)); label("EE", E, dir(point--E)); label("FF", F, dir(point--F)); label("B′B^\prime", Bp, dir(point--Bp)); label("C′C^\prime", Cp, dir(point--Cp));[/asy]
