Let A B C D ABCD be a square and N N a point on segment C D CD such that A D = 3 N D AD = 3 ND . Let M M be a point on segment B C BC satisfying M A N = 4 5 \angle MAN = 45^\circ . The ratio A M A N \frac{AM}{AN} can be expressed as a b c \frac{a\sqrt{b}}{c} , where a , b , a, b, and c c are positive integers, a a and b b are relatively prime, and c c is squarefree. Find the value of a c b 2 ac - b^2 .


The answer is 8.
