Holiday Contest 2025 - Guts Round - Set 4 Problem 3


A rectangle with perimeter 4444 is cut out from a square sheet of paper with side length aa, such that the sides of the rectangle are parallel to the sides of the square and a vertex of the rectangle lies on top of a vertex of the square. This leaves a concave hexagon such that all interior angles are equal to 9090^\circ or 270270^\circ, and the side length of the square is equal to the area of the hexagon. If the largest value of aa can be expressed as pq+rs\frac{p\sqrt{q} + r}{s}, where p,q,r,sp, q, r,s are all positive integers, qq is not divisible by the square of any prime, and gcd(p,r,s)=1\gcd(p,r,s)=1, compute p+q+r+sp + q + r+s.
