Let the circles $C_1: (x-\alpha)^2 + (y-\beta)^2 = r_1^2$ and $C_2: (x-8)^2 + (y-\frac{15}{2})^2 = r_2^2$ touch each other externally at the point $(6,6)$. If the point $(6,6)$ divides the line segment joining the centres of the circles $C_1$ and $C_2$ internally in the ratio $2:1$,then $(\alpha+\beta) + 4(r_1^2 + r_2^2)$ equals

Let $O$ be the centre of the circle $x^2 + y^2 = r^2$,where $r > \frac{\sqrt{5}}{2}$. Suppose $PQ$ is a chord of this circle and the equation of the line passing through $P$ and $Q$ is $2x + 4y = 5$. If the centre of the circumcircle of the triangle $OPQ$ lies on the line $x + 2y = 4$,then the value of $r$ is:
