The number of common tangent$(s)$ to the circles $x^2 + y^2 + 2x + 8y - 23 = 0$ and $x^2 + y^2 - 4x - 10y + 19 = 0$ is :

If a circle $C$ passing through $(4, 0)$ touches the circle $x^2 + y^2 + 4x - 6y - 12 = 0$ externally at a point $(1, -1),$ then the radius of the circle $C$ is

Choose the correct statement about two circles whose equations are given below

$x^{2}+y^{2}-10 x-10 y+41=0$

$x^{2}+y^{2}-22 x-10 y+137=0$

Let $C_1, C_2$ be two circles touching each other externally at the point $A$ and let $A B$ be the diameter of circle $C_1$. Draw a secant $B A_3$ to circle $C_2$, intersecting circle $C_1$ at a point $A_1(\neq A)$, and circle $C_2$ at points $A_2$ and $A_3$. If $B A_1=2, B A_2=3$ and $B A_3=4$, then the radii of circles $C_1$ and $C_2$ are respectively

The point of contact of the given circles ${x^2} + {y^2} - 6x - 6y + 10 = 0$ and ${x^2} + {y^2} = 2$, is

Suppose we have two circles of radius 2 each in the plane such that the distance between their centers is $2 \sqrt{3}$. The area of the region common to both circles lies between
