I'm happy someone tries (with success) to solve my problems! Interesting that you use python...
I am fascinated by interesting circle tangencies. So I am attracted to your problems. Most of them are too hard for me. I'm not a mathematician. I'm just a retired hacker. That explains the python. I annoy folks by posting code. When your only tool is a hammer everything looks like a nail. :)
I posted my last problems, let's see if you can hack those...

At the moment I am stuck on "The End pt 1". So I may switch to "My Ultimate", as it looks more tractable. Actually you have shared so many interesting Sangakus, I could stay busy for a lifetime.
Question: Descartes's theorem is typically applied to three externally tangent circles. Is it also useful for two external and one internal tangency? For example, by simply changing the sign on one of the curvatures? Or should I be constructing similar triangles? Thank you.

My researches lead me to explore different kinds of progression about circle's radii when there is tangency (the point for me being that the radii needs to be rational !). And as you've seen by now, the progression can be written as a polynomial formula (2nd degree) almost always, but actually, when the progression happens in a circular segment, it's not a polynomial, it's about power function ! And some of the sequences in "the end" can not even be found here http://oeis.org/ ! About circles internally tangent : http://www.gogeometry.com/geometry/soddy descartes circles.htm But this link won't help you for "the end", well, it will help only if i make a part 3. Or it will help for "the aberration". This website has many, many interesting problems, if you need inspiration go there, there is amazing material. About triangles, it will help (right triangle will surely). Are they similar? I dont think so...? See you in the end !

It took me a while to find the polynomials, but I eventually found the same ones you did.
