    In the plane, there are given two circles k1k_1 and k2k_2 with different radii, and a point OO lying outside the circles. The end-points of the tangents drawn from OOto k1k_1 are PP and QQ, the end-points of the tangents drawn from OO to k2k_2 are RR and SS. The points PP, QQ, RR, SS are distinct. Let HH be the external homothety center between k1k_1 and k2k_2. Prove that if PRPR is not a external common tangent to the circles but passes through HH then QSQS also passes through HH.
