      I know how to draw an arc that is tangent to 2 line or if one of the line is an arc using truetangent(byTIG) plugin but is there a way or plugin that can do it with 2 arcs?

            So you have this "arc given" and you must to put it somewhere ?
            Are you sure there is a place for that ?
            That one is existing maybe but a "given one" I am some septic! πŸ˜„
            here there is an infinity between 3.5 to 3.6 arc radius
            but if your arc radius given is 2.5 you will have never find one ! πŸ€“

            Even on your semi closed 2 arcs show above if the "arc radius given" is more than the maximum acceptable you will never find one! πŸ˜’

            Good luck πŸ˜‰

            PS If you want make real easy geometry try MOI 3D
            (so no need headache of my document above πŸ’š
            There is an infinite demo without save but enough sufficient! (see my images above) πŸ˜‰
            Just make a snapshot of the screen πŸ˜‰ (Key Print Screen and past it on your favorite 2D Prog!
            You have even a script for save the screen at any size πŸ˜‰

            Replace the x,y 2560 and 2560 by any that you want but carreful it's following your hard memory! (so make some trying πŸ˜‰

            script:var v = moi.ui.getActiveViewport(); if ( v != null ) { moi.view.lineWidth = 4; v.renderToClipboard( 2560, 2560 ); moi.view.lineWidth = 1; }
