1. Three circles are described touching each other at two places externally. If the sides of the triangle are 4cm, 6 cm and 8 cm, find the radii of circles. 2. In the given figure, circles with centres O and O’ touch internally at point A. AB is a chord of bigger circle intersecting the smaller one at C. If the smaller circle passes through the centre of the bigger circle , then P.T AC = CB.
