Determine for what values of $x$ the expressions $2x + 2$,$x + 4$, $x + 2$ can represent the sidelengths of a right triangle.
Equilateral triangle $\triangle ABC$ is inscribed in circle $\omega$ with radius $18.$ Circle $\omega_A$ is tangent to sides $\overline{AB}$ and $\overline{AC}$ and is internally tangent to $\omega$. Circles $\omega_B$ and $\omega_C$ are defined analogously. Circles $\omega_A$, $\omega_B$, and $\omega_C$ meet in six points$-$two points for each pair of circles. The three intersection points closest to the vertices of $\triangle ABC$ are the vertices of a large equilateral triangle in the interior of $\triangle ABC$, and the other three intersection points are the vertices of a smaller equilateral triangle in the interior of $\triangle ABC$. The side length of the smaller equilateral triangle can be written as $\sqrt{a}-\sqrt{b}$, where $a$ and $b$ are positive integers. Find $a+b$.
