Center of lower big cicle to bottom  point of upper big circle be  h.  Angle of sector 2θ.  cos θ=h+((1−h)/2) =((1+h)/2)  (h−r)sin θ=r  r=((hsin θ)/(1+sin θ))  r=(((2cos θ−1)sin θ)/(1+sin θ))  (dr/dθ)=0  ⇒     (1+sin θ)(2cos^2 θ−2sin^2 θ−cos θ)  =cos θsin θ(2cos θ−1)  ⇒  2cos^2 θ−2sin^2 θ−cos θ−2sin^3 θ=0  (4cos^2 θ−cos θ−2)^2 =4(1−cos^2 θ)^3   θ=45°     or    ≈  28.40406  r=0.17157  ;   r=0.2447

I tried with the coordinate method with the  centers of the big circles ±p from the origin  with (1/2)<p<1  the radius of the blue circle is  r=((2p−1)/p^2 )(√((p^2 −1)(p^2 −2+2(√(1−p^2 ))))  its maximum is at p being the real solution  of p^3 +(3/2)p−2=0  ⇒ p=((1+((3(√2))/4)))^(1/3) +((−1+((3(√2))/4)))^(1/3) ≈.879614880  ⇒ r≈.244737182

mr ajfor  please explain relations of  first and second lines..   thank you...  cos(θ)=^(???) ((1+h)/2)  sin(θ)=^(???) (r/(h−r))
