Problem

One side of an equilateral triangle of height $24$ lies on line $\ell$ . A circle of radius $12$ is tangent to line $\ ell$ and is externally tangent to the triangle. The area of the region exterior to the triangle and the circle and bounded by the triangle, the circle, and line $\ell$ can be written as $a \sqrt{b} - c \pi$ , where $a$ , $b$ , and $c$ are positive integers and $b$ is not divisible by the square of any prime. What is $a + b + c$ ?

$\textbf{(A)}~72\qquad\textbf{(B)}~73\qquad\textbf{(C)}~74\qquad\textbf{(D)}~75\qquad\textbf{(E)}~76$
