(B) Given equations of circles are:$S_1 \equiv x^2+y^2+2x+2y+1=0$$S_2 \equiv x^2+y^2-2x+2y+1=0$For circle $S_1$,the centre is $C_1 = (-1, -1)$ and radius $r_1 = \sqrt{(-1)^2 + (-1)^2 - 1} = \sqrt{1} = 1$.For circle $S_2$,the centre is $C_2 = (1, -1)$ and radius $r_2 = \sqrt{(1)^2 + (-1)^2 - 1} = \sqrt{1} = 1$.The distance between the centres $C_1$ and $C_2$ is $d = \sqrt{(1 - (-1))^2 + (-1 - (-1))^2} = \sqrt{2^2 + 0^2} = 2$.Since $d = r_1 + r_2 = 1 + 1 = 2$,the circles touch each other externally.The point of contact is the midpoint of the line segment joining the centres $C_1$ and $C_2$.Point of contact $= \left( \frac{-1 + 1}{2}, \frac{-1 + (-1)}{2} \right) = (0, -1)$.

The point of contact of the circles $x^2+y^2+2x+2y+1=0$ and $x^2+y^2-2x+2y+1=0$ is
