1995 AIME Problem 9
Triangle ABC is isosceles, with AB=AC and altitude AM=11. Suppose that there is a point D on \overline{AM} with AD=10 and \angle BDC=3\angle BAC. Then the perimeter of \triangle ABC may be written in the form a+\sqrt{b}, where a and b are integers. Find a+b.
Leading zeroes must be inputted, so if your answer is 34, then input 034
