the radius, x, of the inner circle is perpendicular
to the tangent chord. so we get a right triangle with
legs 1/2 (half the chord)and x, and hypotenuse r (the
radius of the outer circle. so, x^2+(1/2)^2=r^2.....and
x=sqrt(r^2-1/4). (this requires believing that the inner
circle and outer intersect at the midpoint of the curve.
whaddya think? back to the bills....
