2.3.2 Each circle intersects the internal area of the second
Figure 2-33 shows another case of two circles intersecting: circle C
1
comes from inside of
the circle
C
2
and circle C
2
continues inside the circle C
1
. Noting that
d = ρ(O
1,
O
2
), the switch radius must obey the following necessary condition:
R ≤ [d – (d – R
1
)
– (d – R
2
)]/2 = (R
1
+ R
2
– d)/2
(2.3.2-1)
Condition (2.3.2-1) is sufficient in case line
O
1
O
2
intersects circle arc C
1
and circle arc
C
2
.
Figure 2-33
Line
O

O
2
does not intersect at least one of two circle segments (Figure 2-35)
Another case when line O
1
O
2
does not intersect at least one of the two circle segments. In Figure 2-35 line
(X
c1
, Y
c1
) – (X
c2
, Y
c2
)
connecting two circle centers does not intersect circle arc C
2
. Draw a line O
2
P
1
between the circle
C
2
center and its end point P
1
(X
1
,Y
1
). The center (X
o
, Y
o
) of the switch arc with a
maximum radius must belong to this line. To define maximum radius
r, use the same system as in the
previous cases.
(X
1
– X
o
)/(X
1
– X
c2
) = r/R

(2.3.2-2)
(Y

– Y
o
)/(Y

– Y
c2
) = r/R

(2.3.2-3)
(X

)

+ (Y

)

= (R
