Common tangents of two circle -

When they intersect, there are two common tangents, both of them being direct.

|r_1-r_2|<\left|C_1C_2\right|<r_1+r_2

- wherein

 

From the concept 

centre of the circle (-g,-f)

A = (8,10)

 and R1 = r

Similarly,

B = (4,7), R2 = 6

|R- R2| < AB < R1 + R2

1 < r < 11


Option 1)

 

1< r <11

Option 2)

 

r = 11

Option 3)

 

r>11

Option 4)

 

0 < r < 1
