From AoPSWiki

Problem

Three points A, B, and T are fixed such that T lies on segment AB, closer to point A. Let AT=m and BT=n where m and n are positive integers. Construct circle O with a variable radius that is tangent to AB at T. Let P be the point such that circle O is the incircle of \triangle APB. Construct M as the midpoint of AB. Let f(m,n) denote the maximum value \tan^{2}\angle AMP for fixed m and n where n>m. If f(m,49) is an integer, find the sum of all possible values of m.
