I would like to solve 2D geometry problems of this nature: Find a line tangent to two curves (curves such as ellipse, circle, circular arc, elliptical arc or splines) Find the intersection point between to curves. Is it fairly easy to solve these in Mathematica? I am considering purchasing Mathematica and would like to have your inputs. Thanks in advance.
