Let $ABC$ be a triangle with $AB = AC = 10$ and $BC = 12$. Define $\ell_A$ as the line through $A$ perpendicular to $\overline{AB}$. Similarly, $\ell_B$ is the line through $B$ perpendicular to $\overline{BC}$ and $\ell_C$ is the line through $C$ perpendicular to $\overline{CA}$. These three lines $\ell_A, \ell_B, \ell_C$ form a triangle with perimeter $m/n$ for relatively prime positive integers $m$ and $n$. Find $m + n$.
