  9. Two circles which intersect at only one point Common tangent: EF Q Properties: P Perpendicular to PQ Common Tangents A E B G D F C

  10. Two circles which do not intersect each other Common tangent: AB and CD Q Properties: P • Parallel to PQ • AB = CD Common Tangents A B D C

  11. Two circles which do not intersect each other Common tangent: EH and FG Q Properties: P • Intersect at line PQ • EH = FG Common Tangents A B G E F H D C

  14. Solving problems P H x Q M N Common Tangents In the diagram, P and Q are the centres of two circles with radii 9 cm and 4 cm respectively. MN is a common tangent to the circles. Calculate (a) the length of MN, (b) the value of x, (c) the perimeter of the shaded region. (Assume  = 3.142)

  15. Solving problems T Common Tangents Solution: (a) PQ = 9 + 4 = 13 cm PT = 9 – 4 = 5 cm P H In ∆PQT, TQ2 = PQ2 – PT2 x Q = 132 – 52 TQ = 12 cm M N ஃMN = 12 cm

  16. Solving problems (b) tan x = = Common Tangents Solution: = 2.4 P x = 67.4° H x Q T M N
