1. Construct two circles with a center at
M and N a radius of r1 and
r2,respectively, and then join their
centers.

M N
2. Construct two circular arcs of the same
radius longer than MN with M and N as their
centers such that they intersect at A and B.

M N

B
3. Join A to B obtain a line which
bisects MN at C.

M C N

B
4. Construct a circle with a center at C
and a radius of CM.

M C N

5. Construct a circular arc with a center at
M and a radius of r1 + r2, such that it
intersects the circle with a center at C and a
radius of CM at points D and E.

6. Join the point M to the points D and E
to obtain a line which intersects the circle
centered at M at points P and R.

7. Construct a circular arc with a center at P and a radius of DN,
such that it intersects the circle centered at N at point Q. (So,
PQ=DN). Construct a circular arc with a center at R and radius of
EN such that it intersects the circle centered at N at point S. (So,
RS=EN). D

8. Join the point P to the point Q and the
point R to the point S. the lines PQ and RS
are the internal tangent lines to the two
circles centeral at M and N.
