+ | Since <math>EF</math> is the perpendicular bisector of <math>\overline{BB'}</math>, it follows that <math>BE = B'E</math> (by SAS). By the [[Pythagorean Theorem]], we have <math>AB' = 15</math>. Similarly, from <math>BF = B'F</math>, we have | ||

+ | \begin{align*} | ||
+ | BC^2 + CF^2 = B'D^2 + DF^2 &\Longrightarrow BC^2 + 9 = (BC - 15)^2 + 484 \\ | ||
+ | BC &= \frac{70}{3} | ||
+ | \end{align*} | ||
+ | </cmath> | ||
+ | Thus the perimeter of <math>ABCD</math> is <math>2\left(25 + \frac{70}{3}\right) = \frac{290}{3}</math>, and our answer is <math>m+n=\boxed{293}</math>. | ||
+ | |||
+ | === Solution 2 (analytic) === | ||
+ | Let <math>A = (0,0), B=(0,25)</math>, so <math>E = (0,8)</math> and <math>F = (l,22)</math>, and let <math>l = AD</math> be the length of the rectangle. The [[slope]] of <math>EF</math> is <math>\frac{14}{l}</math> and so the equation of <math>EF</math> is <math>y -8 = \frac{14}{l}x</math>. We know that <math>EF</math> is perpendicular to and bisects <math>BB'</math>. The slope of <math>BB'</math> is thus <math>\frac{-l}{14}</math>, and so the equation of <math>BB'</math> is <math>y -25 = \frac{-l}{14}x</math>. Let the point of intersection of <math>EF, BB'</math> be <math>G</math>. Then the y-coordinate of <math>G</math> is <math>\frac{25}{2}</math>, so | ||
+ | <cmath> | ||
+ | \begin{align*} | ||
+ | \frac{14}{l}x &= y-8 = \frac{9}{2}\\ | ||
+ | \frac{-l}{14}x &= y-25 = -\frac{25}{2}\\ | ||
+ | \end{align*} | ||
+ | </cmath> | ||
+ | Dividing the two equations yields | ||
+ | <center><math>l^2 = \frac{25 \cdot 14^2}{9} \Longrightarrow l = \frac{70}{3}</math></center> | ||
+ | The answer is <math>\boxed{293}</math> as above. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===Solution 3 (Coordinate Bashing)=== | ||
+ | Firstly, observe that if we are given that <math>AE=8</math> and <math>BE=17</math>, the length of the triangle is given and the height depends solely on the length of <math>CF</math>. Let Point <math>A = (0,0)</math>. Since <math>AE=8</math>, point E is at (8,0). Next, point <math>B</math> is at <math>(25,0)</math> since <math>BE=17</math> and point <math>B'</math> is at <math>(0,15)</math> since <math>BE=AE</math> by symmetry. Draw line segment <math>BB'</math>. Notice that this is perpendicular to <math>EF</math> by symmetry. Next, find the slope of EB, which is <math>\frac{15}{25}=\frac{3}{5}</math>. Then, the slope of <math>EF</math> is -<math>\frac{5}{3}</math>. | ||
+ | |||
+ | Line EF can be written as y=<math>-\frac{5}{3}x+b</math>. Plug in the point <math>(8,0)</math>, and we get the equation of EF to be y=<math>_\frac{5}{3}x+\frac{40}{3}</math>. Since the length of <math>AB</math>=25, a point on line <math>EF</math> lies on <math>DC</math> when <math>x=25-3=22</math>. Plug in <math>x=22</math> into our equation to get <math>y=-\frac{70}{3}</math>. <math>|y|=BC=\frac{70}{3}</math>. Therefore, our answer is <math>2(AB+BC)=2\left(25+\frac{70}{3}\right)=2\left(\frac{145}{3}\right)=\frac{290}{3}= \boxed{293}</math>. | ||
+ | |||
+ | ===Solution 4 (Trig)=== | ||
+ | Firstly, note that <math>B'E=BE=17</math>, so <math>AB'=\sqrt{17^2-8^2}=15</math>. Then let <math>\angle BEF=\angle B'EF=\theta</math>, so <math>\angle B'EA = \pi-2\theta</math>. Then <math>\tan(\pi-2\theta)=\frac{15}{8}</math>, or | ||
+ | |||
+ | <cmath>\frac{2\tan(\theta)}{\tan^2(\theta)-1}=\frac{15}{8}</cmath> using supplementary and double angle identities. Multiplying though and factoring yields | ||
+ | |||
+ | <cmath>(3\tan(\theta)-5)(5\tan(\theta)+3)=0</cmath> | ||
+ | |||
+ | It is clear from the problem setup that <math>0<\theta<\frac\pi2</math>, so the correct value is <math>\tan(\theta)=\frac53</math>. Next, extend rays <math>\overrightarrow{BC}</math> and <math>\overrightarrow{EF}</math> to intersect at <math>C'</math>. Then <math>\tan(\theta)=\frac{BC'}{17}=\frac53</math>, so <math>BC'=\frac{85}{3}</math>. By similar triangles, <math>CC'=\frac{3}{17}BC'=\frac{15}{3}</math>, so <math>BC=\frac{70}{3}</math>. The perimeter is <math>\frac{140}{3}+50=\frac{290}{3}\Longrightarrow \boxed{293}</math> | ||
+ | |||
+ | An even faster way to finish is, to draw a line segment <math>FF'</math> where <math>F'</math> is a point on <math>EB</math> such that <math>FF'</math> is perpendicular to <math>EB</math>. This makes right triangle <math>FF'E</math>, Also, note that <math>F'B</math> has length of <math>3</math> (draw the diagram out, and note the <math>F'B =FC</math>). From here, through <math>\tan \theta = \frac{5}{3}</math>, we can note that <math>\frac{FF'}{EF'} = \frac{5}{3} \implies \frac{FF'}{14} = \frac{5}{3} \implies FF' = \frac{70}{3}</math>. <math>FF'</math> is parallel and congrurent to <math>CB</math> and <math>AD</math>, and hence we can use this to calculate the perimeter. The perimeter is simply <math>\frac{70}{3} + \frac{70}{3} + 25 + 25 = \frac{290}{3} \Longrightarrow \boxed{293}</math> | ||
