Suppose that C2 touches OA at F and touches AB at G.
Then OF = OD = d. 1M for tang. prop.
AG = AF = 60 d and BG = BD = b d.
Therefore AB = 60 + b 2d.

(b 36)2 + (0 48)2 = (60 + b 2d)2 1M

b 72b + 3600 = 3600 + b + 4d + 120b 240d 4bd

Therefore, b = 56. 1A

d(60 d)

48 d
d2 116d + 2 688 = 0
d = 32 or 84 (rejected) 1A

Therefore, d = 32.
(ii) Let H is the centre of C1 and K be the centre of C2 .
By (i), H = (28, 16.5).
»
The radius of C1 is 282 + 16.52 = 32.5
Let r be the radius
» of C2 . Then K = (32, r).
Note that AB = (36 56)2 + (48 0)2 = 52.
Considering the area of 4OAB,
56r + 60r + 52r (56)(48)
= 1M

r = 16

Let M be the point of intersection of the line HK and C2 which is

closer to H. If the tangent to C2 at M meets C1 at P and Q, then
the length of P Q is the longest.
