Two circles with equal radii intersect at the points $(0, 1)$ and $(0, -1).$ The tangent at the point $(0, 1)$ to one of the circles passes through the centre of the other circle. Then the distance between the centres of these circles is

Let two circles $C_1$ and $C_2$ of radii $r_1 = 2$ and $r_2 = 4$ be tangent to each other at point $P$ and tangent to a common straight line (not passing through $P$) at points $Q$ and $R$ respectively. Then the value of $PQ^2 + QR^2 + RP^2$ is:

The interval of the values of $a$ for which the line $x + y = 0$ bisects $2$ distinct chords drawn from a point $P \left( \frac{1 + \sqrt{2} a}{2}, \frac{1 - \sqrt{2} a}{2} \right)$ to the circle $2x^2 + 2y^2 - (1 + \sqrt{2} a)x - (1 - \sqrt{2} a)y = 0$ is:
