The equation of the circle with center (1,2) and tangent to
\n" ); document.write( "x+y=1 --> y = -x + 1 (slope m = -1)
\n" ); document.write( "The radius will be thru the point (1,2) and perpendicular to the line x+y=1, so the slope of that radial line will be +1
\n" ); document.write( "y-2 = x-1
\n" ); document.write( "y = x+1 is the eqn of the line thru the center and perpendicular to x+y=1.
\n" ); document.write( "Find the intersection, which is the tangent point.
\n" ); document.write( "x+y=1
\n" ); document.write( "x-y=-1
\n" ); document.write( "-----
\n" ); document.write( "x = 0, y = 1 --> the point (0,1)
\n" ); document.write( "The radius is the distance from (0,1) to (1,2)
\n" ); document.write( "r = sqrt(2)
\n" ); document.write( "------------
\n" ); document.write( "(x-1)^2 + (y-2)^2 = 2 is the circle.\r
