The triangle $ABC$ satisfies $AB=10$ and has angles $\angle{A}=75^{\circ}$, $\angle{B}=60^{\circ}$, and $\angle C = 45^{\circ}$. Let $I_A$ be the center of the excircle opposite $A$, and let $D$, $E$ be the circumcenters of triangle $BCI_A$ and $ACI_A$ respectively. If $O$ is the circumcenter of triangle $ABC$, then the area of triangle $EOD$ can be written as $\tfrac{a\sqrt{b}}{c}$ for square-free $b$ and coprime $a,c$. Find the value of $a+b+c$.
