Problem

Consider the parallelogram with vertices $\displaystyle (10,45),$ $\displaystyle (10,114),$ $\displaystyle (28,153),$ and $\displaystyle (28,84).$ A line through the origin cuts this figure into two congruent polygons. The slope of the line is $\displaystyle m/n,$ where $\displaystyle m_{}$ and $\displaystyle n_{}$ are relatively prime positive integers. Find $\displaystyle m+n.$
