For elementary questions concerning circles (or disks). A circle is the locus of points in a plane that are at a fixed distance from a fixed point. Use this tag alongside [geometry], [Euclidean geometry], or something similar. Do not use this tag for more advanced topics, such as complex analysis or topology.

How to prove that I've found the locus of the centers of the circles that pass through "thes...

At first, let's name all the circles centers as X₁, X₂, etc. So the first thing we need is to join each X₁, X₂, etc. circles centers with both A and O points. … Proof-steps are the same for all the other circles center. …

I have the next exercise: Find the locus of the centers of the circles that pass through "these" two points Here is the image with my solution drawing: Sure, we can see that the locus I have to find … is the mid perpendicular, but here is the point: to prove that this is the mid perpendicular I have to prove at first that all these centers of the circles are on the same straight line. …

Proving that a smaller inscribed, tangent circle to another circle makes an angle bisector o...

To do this, draw a tangent to the two given circles, that they both will share, through the point K. … By a theorem in my book(which I think is a commonly known fact), since the $LJ$ line is tangent to both circles: $\angle LKA = \frac{1}{2} \cup AK = \frac{1}{2} \cup EK \implies \angle KFE = \angle KBA …
