Detailed Solution
A divides C1C2 externally in the ratio 1:3 . The external center of similitude is P, it divides C1C2 in the ratio r1:r2 externally. externally. Hence, P−3,0Suppose that the angle between the direct common tangent is θtanθ2=rS11=13θ2=30°Equation of tangent from A−3,0 is a line making an angle 30° with x− axis and passing through the point −3,0Equation of tangent is x+3=3yit cuts the transverse common tangent x=0 at 0,3Therefore, the vertices of the required triangle are 0,3.0,−3,−3,0Hence the area of the triangle is 33 square units
