AIME 2017a Problem 8

  • Paper
  • Answer

Two real numbers aa and bb are chosen independently and uniformly at random from the interval (0,75)(0, 75). Let OO and PP be two points on the plane with OP=200OP = 200. Let QQ and RR be on the same side of line OPOP such that the degree measures of ∠POQ\angle POQ and ∠POR\angle POR are aa and bb respectively, and ∠OQP\angle OQP and ∠ORP\angle ORP are both right angles. The probability that QR≤100QR \leq 100 is equal to mn\frac{m}{n}, where mm and nn are relatively prime positive integers. Find m+nm + n.
