AIME 2009b Problem 5

  • Paper
  • Answer

Equilateral triangle TT is inscribed in circle AA, which has radius 1010. Circle BB with radius 33 is internally tangent to circle AA at one vertex of TT. Circles CC and DD, both with radius 22, are internally tangent to circle AA at the other two vertices of TT. Circles BB, CC, and DD are all externally tangent to circle EE, which has radius mn\dfrac mn, where mm and nn are relatively prime positive integers. Find m+nm+n. [asy] unitsize(3mm); defaultpen(linewidth(.8pt)); dotfactor=4; pair A=(0,0), D=8dir(330), C=8dir(210), B=7*dir(90); pair Ep=(0,4-27/5); pair[] dotted={A,B,C,D,Ep}; draw(Circle(A,10)); draw(Circle(B,3)); draw(Circle(C,2)); draw(Circle(D,2)); draw(Circle(Ep,27/5)); dot(dotted); label("EE",Ep,E); label("AA",A,W); label("BB",B,W); label("CC",C,W); label("DD",D,E); [/asy]
