Let A be the centre of the circle $${x^2}\, + \,{y^2}\, - \,2x\,\, - 4y\, - 20 = 0\,$$. Suppose that the tangents at the points B (1, 7) and D (4. - 2) on the circle meet at the point C. Find the area of the quadrilateral ABCD.

Find the equations of the circle passing through (- 4, 3) and touching the lines x + y = 2 and x - y = 2.

Find the equation of the circle whose radius is 5 and which touches the circle $${x^2}\, + \,{y^2}\, - \,2x\,\, - 4y\, - 20 = 0\,$$ at the point (5, 5).
