A rectangular prism has a square base with side length s units. It also has the curious property that the numerical value of the sum of its edge lengths (in units) is equal to the numerical value of its surface area (in square units).
If one edge of the prism has length 8 units and s 6= 8, then s can be written in the form a + √b, where a and b are integers. Find a + b.
