AIME 2021b Problem 10

  • Paper
  • Answer

Two spheres with radii 3636 and one sphere with radius 1313 are each externally tangent to the other two spheres and to two different planes P\mathcal{P} and Q\mathcal{Q}. The intersection of planes P\mathcal{P} and Q\mathcal{Q} is the line ℓ\ell. The distance from line ℓ\ell to the point where the sphere with radius 1313 is tangent to plane P\mathcal{P} is mn\tfrac{m}{n}, where mm and nn are relatively prime positive integers. Find m+nm + n.
