In square A B C D with side length a , E is a midpoint of B C and diagonal A C , E D and A D is tangent to circle O with radius r at J , I and F respectively.
If a r = β + α α + λ α , where α , β and λ are coprime positive integers, find α + β + λ .

We can find inradius of a triangle without finding the area and perimeter of the triangle. Check out this solution.
Let a = 1 , ∠ C A D = α , and ∠ E D A = β . Note that A O bisects ∠ C A D and O D bisects ∠ E D A . Then we have:
A F + F D O F ⋅ cot ∠ O A F + O F cot O D F r cot 2 α + r ⋅ cot 2 β 2 − 1 r + 5 − 1 2 r r ⟹ a r = A D = A D = 1 = 1 = 2 − 1 1 + 5 − 1 2 1 = 2 − 1 2 + 1 + 5 − 1 2 ( 5 + 1 ) 1 = 2 + 1 + 2 5 + 1 1 = 3 + 2 2 + 5 2 Using tan 2 θ = sin θ 1 − cos θ (see note). Since a = 1
Therefore the required answer is 3 + 2 + 5 = 1 0 .

For A C : y = x and m E D = − 2 ⟹ y = − 2 x + 2 a ⟹ x = y = 3 2 a
⟹ G ( 3 2 a , 3 2 a ) ⟹ A G = 3 2 2 a and G D = 3 5 a
⟹ A △ A G D = 2 1 ( a ) ( 3 2 a ) = 3 a 2 = 2 a r ( 3 3 + 2 2 + 5 ) ⟹
2 a 2 − ( 3 + 2 2 + 5 ) a r = 0 ⟹ a ( 2 a − ( 3 + 2 2 + 5 ) r ) = 0 and
a = 0 ⟹ r = 3 + 2 2 + 5 2 a ⟹ a r = 3 + 2 2 + 5 2 = β + α α + λ α
⟹ α + β + λ = 1 0 .
