The circles x^2 +y^2 −2ax+8y+13=0  and x^2 +y^2 +2x+2by+1=0 are   congruent. If they are 2(√(10)) units   apart, find the possible values of  a and b.

(x−a)^2 +(y+4)^2 =a^2 +3          (C1)  (x+1)^2 +(y+b)^2 =b^2    (C2)  C1 and C2 are congruants then  a^2 +3=b^2      ⇒ b=(√(a^2 +3))   (a,b)εR^2   exemple   a=1    b=2                         a=0    b=(√3)   ...........
