sorry I have no time...  can we find the equation of all circles  (x−m)^2 +(y−n)^2 =n^2  with 0≤m≤a  touching the upper half ellipse  y=(1/a)(√(a^2 −x^2 )) with 1<a  as a first step to solve this problem?

let μ=(b/a), λ=(r/a)  say P(a cos θ, b sin θ)  tan ϕ=−((b cos θ)/(−a sin θ))=(μ/(tan θ))  a cos θ=(√(((b/2)+r)^2 −((b/2)−r)^2 ))+r sin ϕ  ⇒a cos θ=(√(2br))+((μr)/( (√(μ^2 +tan^2  θ))))   ...(i)  b sin  θ=r+r cos ϕ  ⇒b sin  θ=r[1+((tan θ)/( (√(μ^2 +tan^2  θ))))]   ...(ii)  (ii)÷(i):  μ tan θ=((r[1+((tan θ)/( (√(μ^2 +tan^2  θ))))])/( (√(2br))+((rμ)/( (√(μ^2 +tan^2  θ))))))  let t=tan^2  θ  μt=(((√λ)[1+(t/( (√(μ^2 +t^2 ))))])/( (√(2μ))+(((√λ)μ)/( (√(μ^2 +t^2 ))))))  (√λ)[1+(t/( (√(μ^2 +t^2 ))))]=(((√λ)μ^2 t)/( (√(μ^2 +t^2 ))))+μt(√(2μ))  ⇒λ=((2μ^3 t^2 )/([1+(((1−μ^2 )t)/( (√(μ^2 +t^2 ))))]^2 ))   ...(I)  from (ii):  ((μt)/( (√(1+t^2 ))))=λ[1+(t/( (√(μ^2 +t^2 ))))]  ⇒λ=((μt)/( (√(1+t^2 ))[1+(t/( (√(μ^2 +t^2 ))))]))   ...(II)  ⇒[1+(((1−μ^2 )t)/( (√(μ^2 +t^2 ))))]^2 =2μ^2 t(√(1+t^2 ))[1+(t/( (√(μ^2 +t^2 ))))]   ...(III)  we can get t from (III) and then λ  from (I) or (II).
