AIME 2008a Problem 10

  • Paper
  • Answer

Let ABCDABCD be an isosceles trapezoid with AD‾∣∣BC‾\overline{AD}||\overline{BC} whose angle at the longer base AD‾\overline{AD} is π3\dfrac{\pi}{3}. The diagonals have length 102110\sqrt {21}, and point EE is at distances 10710\sqrt {7} and 30730\sqrt {7} from vertices AA and DD, respectively. Let FF be the foot of the altitude from CC to AD‾\overline{AD}. The distance EFEF can be expressed in the form mnm\sqrt {n}, where mm and nn are positive integers and nn is not divisible by the square of any prime. Find m+nm + n.
