Two circles centres A and B radii r1 and...

Two circles centres `A and B` radii `r_1 and r_2` respectively. (i) touch each other internally iff `|r_1 - r_2| = AB`. (ii) Intersect each other at two points iff `|r_1 - r_2| ltAB lt r_1 r_2`. (iii) touch each other externally iff `r_1 + r_2 = AB`. (iv) are separated if `AB gt r_1 + r_2`. Number of common tangents to the two circles in case (i), (ii), (iii) and (iv) are 1, 2, 3 and 4 respectively. Number of common tangents to the circles `x^2 + y^2 - 6x = 0 and x^2 + y^2 + 2x = 0` is (A) 1 (B) 2 (C) 3 (D) 4
