Apr 18, 2017 at 18:28 comment added Svend Tveskæg I was mistaken (again); it really has to be both (a1^2 m (c - yC1) - b1^2 xC1)/(a1^2 m^2 + b1^2) and (a2^2 m (c - yC2) - b2^2 xC2)/(a2^2 m^2 + b2^2). Nevermind, since I've managed to put together all my different pieces of code in order to make the "program" work.

Comment by OP changed equation in `solXY[2]`. Also, removed `[[1]]` from `Solve` in `SolXY` to get all solutions
Apr 17, 2017 at 19:30 comment added Svend Tveskæg I'm really a novice at Mathematica, so I don't know where to start / what to try.
Apr 17, 2017 at 19:27 comment added Bob Hanlon @SvendTveskæg - So what have you tried? If there was a problem, what was it?
Apr 17, 2017 at 19:24 comment added Svend Tveskæg Hmmm! I've missed something; I can see that all eight point have to calculated from only (a1^2 m (c - yC1) - b1^2 xC1)/(a1^2 m^2 + b1^2) (and not half of them from (a2^2 m (c - yC2) - b2^2 xC2)/(a2^2 m^2 + b2^2)). Can the code them be made "simpler"?
