$\beta$ is the angle made by the perpendicular drawn from the origin to the line $L \equiv x+y-2=0$ with the positive $X$-axis in the anticlockwise direction. If '$a$' is the $X$-intercept of the line $L=0$ and $p$ is the perpendicular distance from the origin to the line $L=0$,then $a \tan \beta + p^2 =$
