Question

Circle A has a center at `(3 ,7 )` and a radius of `1`. Circle B has a center at `(1 ,3 )` and a radius of `6`. Do the circles overlap? If not, what is the smallest distance between them?

Answer 1

No, the circles do not overlap
Distance center to center `=2sqrt5~=4.47`
Smallest distance between them `=6-2sqrt5-1=5-2sqrt5=0.527864045" "`

Explanation:

Smallest distance between them
`=6-2sqrt5-1=5-2sqrt5=0.527864045" "`

God bless....I hope the explanation is useful.
