AMC 12 2022b Problem 25

  • Paper

Four regular hexagons surround a square with a side length 11, each one sharing an edge with the square, as shown in the figure below. The area of the resulting 12-sided outer nonconvex polygon can be written as mn+pm\sqrt{n} + p, where mm, nn, and pp are integers and nn is not divisible by the square of any prime. What is m+n+pm + n + p?

draw(shift((sqrt(3)/2,1/2))*rotate(90)*polygon(6));
draw(shift((1-sqrt(3)/2,1/2))*rotate(90)*polygon(6));
