A dartboard is the region BB in the coordinate plane consisting of points (x,y)(x, y) such that x+y8|x| + |y| \le 8 . A target TT is the region where (x2+y225)249(x^2 + y^2 - 25)^2 \le 49 . A dart is thrown and lands at a random point in B. The probability that the dart lands in TT can be expressed as mnπ\frac{m}{n} \cdot \pi , where mm and nn are relatively prime positive integers. What is m+nm + n ?
