Find an equation(s) of the circle(s) of radius 4 with center on the line 4x + 3y + 7 = 0 and tangent to 3x + 4y + 34 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "---------------
\n" ); document.write( "There are 2 circles.
\n" ); document.write( "Find the equations of the 2 lines parallel to 3x + 4y + 34 = 0 and 4 units from it.
\n" ); document.write( "3x + 4y + 34 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "y = (-3/4)x - 17/2
\n" ); document.write( "Slope m of 3x + 4y + 34 = 0 is -3/4.
\n" ); document.write( "Difference in y-ints = 4/(cos(atan(-3/4)) = 5
\n" ); document.write( "-------------
\n" ); document.write( "--> the 2 parallel lines are:
\n" ); document.write( "y = (-3/4)x - 17/2 + 5 = (-3/4)x - 7/2
\n" ); document.write( "and y = (-3/4)x - 17/2 - 5 = (-3/4)x - 27/2
\n" ); document.write( "----------
\n" ); document.write( "The intersection of those 2 lines and 4x + 3y + 7 = 0 are the 2 centers of the circles, (h,k).
\n" ); document.write( "---
\n" ); document.write( "4x + 3y + 7 = 0
\n" ); document.write( "y = (-3/4)x - 7/2
\n" ); document.write( "4x -9x/4 - 21/2 = -7
\n" ); document.write( "7x/4 = 7/2
\n" ); document.write( "x = 2, y = -5
\n" ); document.write( "--> \"%28x-2%29%5E2+%2B+%28y%2B5%29%5E2+=+16\"
\n" ); document.write( "===============================
\n" ); document.write( "Find the other circle the same way.
