Add the smaller radius to the bigger circle KEYWORDS: Internal Radius

For internal tangents always add the small circles radius to the bigger circles radius.

For internal tangents always add the small circles radius to the bigger circles radius. This is so you are now constructing a tangent from a point to a circle KEYWORDS: Internal Radius
