  • Answer

In acute triangle ABCABC points PP and QQ are the feet of the perpendiculars from CC to AB‾\overline{AB} and from BB to AC‾\overline{AC}, respectively. Line PQPQ intersects the circumcircle of △ABC\triangle ABC in two distinct points, XX and YY. Suppose XP=10XP=10, PQ=25PQ=25, and QY=15QY=15. The value of AB⋅ACAB\cdot AC can be written 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.
