Two concentric circles of radii a and b (a > b) are given. Find the length of the chord of the larger circle which touches the smaller circle.

The length of common chord of the circles $(x - a)^{2} + y^{2}$ = $a^{2}$ and $x^{2} + (y - b)^{2}$ = $b^{2}$ is

(a,b) is the mid point of the chord $¯ A B$ of the circle $x^{2} + y^{2} = r^{2}$ . The tangent at A,B meet a C. then area of $Δ A B C$
