Problem
Circle and each have radius , and the distance between their centers is . Circle is the largest circle internally tangent to both and . Circle is internally tangent to both and and externally tangent to . What is the radius of ?
Solution
Let be the center of the midpoint of the line segment connecting both the centers, say and .
Let the point of tangency with the inscribed circle and the right larger circles be .
Then
Since is internally tangent to , center of , and their tangent point must be on the same line.
Now, if we connect centers of , and /, we get a right angled triangle.
Let the radius of equal . With the pythagorean theorem on our triangle, we have
Solving this equation gives us
