Problem Statement

Two circumferences of radius 11 that do not intersect, c1c_1 and c2c_2, are placed inside an angle whose vertex is OO. c1c_1 is tangent to one of the rays of the angle, while c2c_2 is tangent to the other ray. One of the common internal tangents of c1c_1 and c2c_2 passes through OO, and the other one intersects the rays of the angle at points AA and BB, with AO=BOAO=BO. Find the distance of point AA to the line OBOB.
