E be the intersection of AC and BD . Circles Ω and ω are circumscribed about triangles ABE and
CDE . Compute the sum of the radii of Ω and ω .
Answer: 39 Let Ω have center O and radius R and let ω have center P and radius M . Let Qbe the intersection of AB and OE . Note that OE is the perpendicular bisector of AB because thetrapezoid is isosceles. Also, we see OE is the circumradius of Ω. On the other hand, we know by

perpendicular to OQ , we can apply the Pythagorean theorem to △ OQB to see OQ = R − .

Since OE = OQ + QE , R = · 3 + R − . Solving this equation for R yields R = · 39.2

Since by similarity M = R , we know R + M = R , so R + M = 39.
