Equation of circle with X-axis as tangent ⇒ 𝑥 − ℎ + 𝑦−𝑘 = 𝑘 2 , which has centre at (ℎ, 𝑘) and is of
radius 𝑘.
∴𝑏+𝑎 = ℎ2 − ℎ1 2 + 𝑏−𝑎 2
2 2 2
⟹ 𝑏+𝑎 = ℎ2 − ℎ1 + 𝑏−𝑎
2
⟹ 4𝑎𝑏 = ℎ2 − ℎ1 − − − −→ 𝐴
Similarly,

4𝑐𝑎 = ℎ1 − ℎ3 − − − −→ 𝐶
By diagram,
𝐵𝐶 = 𝐴𝐵 + 𝐴𝐶
⇒ 𝑏𝑐 = 𝑎𝑏 + 𝑐𝑎
𝑏𝑐 𝑎𝑏 𝑐𝑎

⇒ 𝑟 − 6 < 25 < 𝑟 + 6
⇒1<𝑟<6
By 3 × 𝑖𝑖 − 2 × 𝑖 , we get:
∴ 3 6𝑥 + 2𝑦 − 14 − 2 4𝑥 + 3𝑦 − 1 = 0
⇒ 10𝑥 − 40 = 0
⇒𝑥=4
⇒ 4 4 + 3𝑦 − 1 = 0 𝐹𝑟𝑜𝑚 𝑖
