Consider M with $r = {{1025} \over {513}}$. Let k be the number of all those circles Cn that are inside M. Let l be the maximum possible number of circles among these k circles such that no two circles intersect. Then

Let $y=m x \pm 2 \sqrt{1+m^2}$ also touches $(x-3)^2+ y^2=1$
$\Rightarrow(x-3)^2+\left(m x \pm 2 \sqrt{1+m^2}\right)^2=1$
$\Rightarrow x^2-6 x+9+m^2 x^2+4\left(1+m^2\right) \pm 4 m \sqrt{1+m^2} x=1$
$\Rightarrow\left(1+m^2\right) x^2+\left(-6 \pm 4 m \sqrt{1+m^2}\right) x+4\left(m^2+3\right)=0$
