A little point

Geometry Level 4

In A B C \triangle ABC let A B = B C = L AB=BC=L and A B C = 90 ° \angle ABC = 90° . There is a point Q Q inside A B C \triangle ABC such that Q A = k QA=k , Q B = 2 k QB=2k and Q C = 3 k QC=3k . If ( L k ) 2 = a + b c \left(\dfrac{L}{k}\right)^2=a+b\sqrt{c} , where a a , b b and c c are natural numbers and c c is prime, find a + b + c a+b+c .


The answer is 9.

Really enjoyed taking in this proof. Did not say 'reading', because the figure itself says so much without words. Beautiful!
