Rhombus PQRS is inscribed in rectangle ABCD so that vertices P, Q, R, and S are interior points on sides AB, BC, CD, and DA, respectively. It is given that PB=15, BQ=20, PR=30, and QS=40. Let nm, in lowest terms, denote the perimeter of ABCD. Find m+n.

Solution 1
Let O be the center of the rhombus. Via parallel sides and alternate interior angles, we see that the opposite triangles are congruent (△BPQ≅△DRS, △APS≅△CRQ). Quickly we realize that O is also the center of the rectangle.
By the Pythagorean Theorem, we can solve for a side of the rhombus; PQ=152+202=25. Since the diagonals of a rhombus are perpendicular bisectors, we have that OP=15,OQ=20. Also, ∠POQ=90∘, so quadrilateral BPOQ is cyclic. By Ptolemy's Theorem, 25⋅OB=20⋅15+15⋅20=600.
By similar logic, we have APOS is a cyclic quadrilateral. Let AP=x, AS=y. The Pythagorean Theorem gives us x2+y2=625(1). Ptolemy’s Theorem gives us 25⋅OA=20x+15y. Since the diagonals of a rectangle are equal, OA=21d=OB, and 20x+15y=600(2). Solving for y, we get y=40−34x. Substituting into (1),
x2+(40−34x)25x2−192x+1755x=10192±1922−4⋅5⋅1755===625015,5117
We reject 15 because then everything degenerates into squares, but the condition that PR=QS gives us a contradiction. Thus x=5117, and backwards solving gives y=544. The perimeter of ABCD is 2(20+15+5117+544)=5672, and m+n=677.
Solution 2
From above, we have OB=24 and BD=48. Returning to BPQO, note that ∠PQO≅∠PBO≅ABD. Hence, △ABD∼△OQP by AA similarity. From here, it's clear that
BDAD=PQOP⟹48AD=2515⟹AD=5144.
Similarly,
BDAB=PQIQ⟹48AB=2520⟹AB=5192.
Therefore, the perimeter of rectangle ABCD is 2(AB+AD)=2(5192+5144)=5672.
Solution 3
The triangles QOB,OBC are isosceles, and similar (because they have ∠QOB=∠OBC).
Hence OBBQ=BCOB⇒OB2=BC⋅BQ.
The length of OB could be found easily from the area of BPQ:
BP⋅BQ=2OB⋅PQ⇒OB=PQ2BP⋅BQ⇒OB=24OB2=BC⋅BQ⇒242=(20+CQ)⋅20⇒CQ=544
From the right triangle CRQ we have RC2=252−(544)2⇒RC=5117. We could have also defined a similar formula: OB2=BP⋅BA, and then we found AP, the segment OB is tangent to the circles with diameters AO,CO.
The perimeter is 2(PB+BQ+QC+CR)=2(15+20+544+117)=5672⇒m+n=677.
Solution 4
For convenience, let ∠PQS=θ. Since the opposite triangles are congruent we have that ∠BQR=3θ, and therefore ∠QRC=3θ−90. Let QC=a, then we have sin(3θ−90)=25a, or −cos3θ=25a. Expanding with the formula cos3θ=4cos3θ−3cosθ, and since we have cosθ=54, we can solve for a. The rest then follows similarily from above.
Solution 5
We can just find coordinates of the points. After drawing a picture, we can see 4 congruent right triangles with sides of 15,20,25, namely triangles DSR,OSR,OQP, and BQP.
Let the points of triangle DSR be (0,0)(0,20)(15,0). Let point E be on SR, such that SE=16 and ER=9. Triangle DSR can be split into two similar 3-4-5 right triangles, ESD and EDR. By the Pythagorean Theorem, point D is 12 away from point E. Repeating the process, if we break down triangle DER into two more similar triangles, we find that point E is at (9.6,7.2).
By reflecting point D=(0,0) over point E=(9.6,7.2), we get point O=(19.2,14.4). By reflecting point D over point O, we get point B=(38.4,28.8). Thus, the perimeter is equal to (38.4+28.8)×2=5672, making the final answer 672+5=677.
Solution 6
We can just use areas. Let AP=b and AS=a. a2+b2=625. Also, we can add up the areas of all 8 right triangles and let that equal the total area of the rectangle, (a+20)(b+15). This gives 3a+4b=120. Solving this system of equation gives 544=a, 5117=b, from which it is straightforward to find the answer, 2(a+b+35)⇒5672. Thus, m+n=5672⟹677
Solution 7
We will bash with trigonometry.
Firstly, by Pythagoras Theorem, PQ=QR=RS=SP=25. We observe that [PQRS]=21⋅30⋅40=600. Thus, if we drop an altitude from P to SR to point E, it will have length 25600=24. In particular, SE=7 since we form a 7-24-25 triangle.
Now, sin∠APS=sin∠SPB=sin(∠SPQ+∠QPB)=sin∠SPQcos∠QPB+sin∠QPBcos∠SPQ=sin∠PSRcos∠QPB−sin∠QPBcos∠PSR=2524⋅2515−2520⋅257=12544. Thus, since PS=25, we get that AS=544. Now, by the Pythagorean Theorem, AP=5117.
Using the same idea, cos∠RSD=−cos∠RSA=−cos(∠RSP+∠PSA)=sin∠RSPsin∠PSA−cos∠RSPcos∠PSA=2524⋅125117−257⋅12544=54. Thus, since SR=20.
Now, we can finish. We know AB=5117+15=5192. We also know AD=544+20=5144. Thus, our perimeter is 5672⟹677
Solution 8 (Pythagorean Theorem Bash)
Note that this is a modified version of the original diagram. By the Pythagorean theorem, the side length of the rhombus is 25. Since a rhombus is a parallelogram, its diagonals bisect each other. Thus, △PBQ≅△RDS and △QCR≅△SAP by symmetry.
Let RC=x and QC=y. Applying the Pythagorean theorem to △QCR, we obtain
x2+y2=625.
Next, draw a point F such that QF⊥AD. Applying the Pythagorean theorem again gives
(20−y)2+(15+x)2=1600.
Expanding,
y2−40y+400+x2+30x+225=1600.
Substituting x2+y2=625 and combining constants yields
30x−40y=350,
which simplifies to
3x=4y+35⇒x=34y+35.
Substituting this into x2+y2=625, we get
