2014 AIME II Problem 8

Circle C with radius 2 has diameter \overline{AB}. Circle D is internally tangent to circle C at A. Circle E is internally tangent to circle C, externally tangent to circle D, and tangent to \overline{AB}. The radius of circle D is three times the radius of circle E, and can be written in the form \sqrt{m}-n, where m and n are positive integers. Find m+n.

Leading zeroes must be inputted, so if your answer is 34, then input 034
