Task 189

The task

Wanda is trying to locate the Fermat point $P$ of $\triangle ABC$, where $A$ is at the origin, $B$ is at $(10,0)$, and $C$ is at $(3,5)$ (the Fermat point is the point such that the sum of its distances from the vertices of a triangle is minimized). She guesses that the point is at $P = (4,2)$, and computes the sum of the distances from $P$ to the vertices of $\triangle ABC$. If she obtains $m\sqrt5 + n\sqrt{10}$, where $m$ and $n$ are integers, what is $m + n$? [asy] string sp(pair P1, string P2){return "$" + P2 + "\,(" + string(P1.x) + "," + string(P1.y) + ")$";} size(150); defaultpen(fontsize(10)); draw((-3,0)--(10,0),Arrows(4)); draw((0,-3)--(0,8),Arrows(4)); pair A=(0,0),B=(10,0),C=(3,5),P=(4,2); draw(A--B--C--cycle, linewidth(0.7)); draw(A--P, dashed); draw(B--P, dashed); draw(C--P, dashed); label(sp(A,"A"),A,NW); label(sp(B,"B"),B,S); label(sp(C,"C"),C,N); label(sp(P,"P"),P,(-0.5,-2.8)); dot(A); dot(B); dot(C); dot(P); [/asy]
