Problem Statement

In ABC\vartriangle ABC, AB=3AB = 3, BC=5BC = 5, and CA=6CA = 6. Points DD and EE are chosen such that ACDEACDE is a square which does not overlap with ABC\vartriangle ABC. The length of BDBD can be expressed in the form m+np\sqrt{m + n\sqrt{p}}, where mm, nn, and pp are positive integers and pp is not divisible by the square of a prime. Determine the value of m+n+pm + n + p.
