Clearly the pair of lines formed by x y = 0 are x axis and y axis.
The second pair of lines is:- x y + 1 = x + y x y − x − y + 1 = 0 ( x − 1 ) ( y − 1 ) = 0 Hence the pair of lines by this equation is x = 1 and y = 1 .
Hence the square formed has side equal to 1 u n i t .
Let radius of circle with center C 1 is r . Hence radius of circle with Center C 2 is 2 r .
From symmetry of square we can claim that C 1 and C 2 lie on the diagonal of the square. Looking at this diagonal we can the following equation:- 2 r + r + 2 r + 2 2 r = 2 3 r + 3 2 = 2 r = 3 2 − 2
