AMC 12 2023a Problem 18

  • Paper

Circle C1C_1 and C2C_2 each have radius 11, and the distance between their centers is 12\frac{1}{2}. Circle C3C_3 is the largest circle internally tangent to both C1C_1 and C2C_2. Circle C4C_4 is internally tangent to both C1C_1 and C2C_2 and externally tangent to C3C_3. What is the radius of C4C_4?
