  • Answer

Let △ABC\triangle ABC be a right triangle with right angle at C.C. Let DD and EE be points on AB‾\overline{AB} with DD between AA and EE such that CD‾\overline{CD} and CE‾\overline{CE} trisect ∠C.\angle C. If DEBE=815,\frac{DE}{BE} = \frac{8}{15}, then tan⁡B\tan B can be written as mpn,\frac{m \sqrt{p}}{n}, where mm and nn are relatively prime positive integers, and pp is a positive integer not divisible by the square of any prime. Find m+n+p.m+n+p.
