A second circle has centre \(B\) and passes through \(A\). The tangent at \(B\) to the first circle intersects the second circle at \(C\) and \(D\). The coordinates of \(A\) are ( \(- 1,4\) ) and the coordinates of \(B\) are ( 3,2 ).
  1. Find the equation of the tangent CBD.
  2. Find an equation of the circle with centre \(B\).
  3. Find, by calculation, the \(x\)-coordinates of \(C\) and \(D\).

A circle with centre \(O\) and radius \(r\) lies within the sector and touches it at \(D , E\) and \(F\), where \(C O D\) is a straight line and angle \(A C D\) is \(\theta\) radians.
