Problem

A right circular cone of base radius $\displaystyle 17$cm and slant height $\displaystyle 34$cm is given. $\displaystyle P$ is a point on the circumference of the base and the shortest path from $\displaystyle P$ around the cone and back is drawn (see diagram). If the length of this path is $\displaystyle m\sqrt{n},$ where $\displaystyle m$ and $\displaystyle n$ are relatively prime positive integers, find $\displaystyle m+n.$
