A system of circles is said to be coaxial when every pair of the circles has the same radical axis. It
follows from this definition that :
1. The centres of all circles of a coaxial system lie on one straight line, which is
perpendicular to the common radical axis.
2. Circles passing through two fixed points form a coaxial system for which the line joining the
fixed points is the common radical axis.
3. The equation to a coaxial system, of which two members are S 1 = 0 and S 2 = 0, is
S 1 + λS 2 = 0, λ is parameter. If we choose the line of centres as x-axis and the
common radical axis as y - axis, then the simplest form of equation of coaxial circles
is x2 + y2 + 2gx + c = 0 ...(1)
where c is fixed and g is arbitrary.

If g = ± c , then the radius g2  c vanishes and the circles become point circles. The points

(± c , 0) are called the limiting points of the system of coaxial circles given by (1).
