Let the circles C1:(x−α)2+(y−β)2=r12C_1: (x - \alpha)^2 + (y - \beta)^2 = r_1^2 and C2:(x−8)2+(y−152)2=r22C_2: (x - 8)^2 + \left(y - \frac{15}{2}\right)^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 C1C_1 and C2C_2 internally in the ratio 2 : 1, then (α+β)+4(r12+r22)(\alpha + \beta) + 4(r_1^2 + r_2^2) equals (a) 110 (b) 125 (c) 145 (d) 130
