Problem
Let: be a circle, be one of its diameters, be its tangent at and be a point on other than . A circle is constructed tangent to at and to the line .
a. Determine the point of tangency of and , and find the locus of the centers of the circles by varying .
b. Prove that there is a circle orthogonal to all the circles .
NOTE: Two circles are orthogonal if they intersect and the respective tangents at the points of intersection are perpendicular.
