Thread: making a program that draws two circles and calculates the area and circumference

I have a program that I need to finish before tomorrow and here are the instructions:

To draw two circles plus a line connecting their centers and then print a few facts about the circles. The (x, y) coordinates and radii of the circles must be accepted from the user.
The applet’s algorithm is as follows:
1. Ask the user for the x-coordinate for the location of a circle.
2. Ask the user for the y-coordinate for the location of a circle.
3. Ask the user for the x-coordinate for the location of another circle.
4. Ask the user for the y-coordinate for the location of another circle.
5. Ask the user for the radius of a circle.
6. Ask the user for the radius of another circle.
7. Draw both circles using the x, y coordinates and radii given by the user.
8. Draw a line connecting both centers.
9. Write the following facts about the circles:
a. Each circle’s area
b. Each circle’s circumference
c. Whether or not the circles touch each other.


Requirements:
•This program must extend a JFrame.
•Set the size of the program to 500x500 using the setSize(500, 500); function.
•Remember that when you draw the circles, you must use the drawOval() function, but it will NOT use the center of the circle as the x,y coordinate, it will use the upper-left corner of the shape. So you must adjust the ends of the line segment so that it connects the circles by their centers (add the radius to the x and y coordinates of the circles to do this).
•Use the drawString() function to display the messages about the circles. The numbers for the area and circumference should be formatted using %1.3f. This can be done by using the String class’s format() function for example:
drawstring(String.format(“area = %1.3f”, circle1Area));
•Your program class should contain private double variables to store the circle data.
•Use Math.PI to get the value of Pi (3.14159…) for calculating the area and circumference.
•To find out if the circles overlap, you can use the Distance Formula (look it up) to find the distance between their centers, then compare that distance to the sum of the two circles’ radii. If the distance is less than or equal to the sum of the radii, they overlap.


The problems I'm having is basically Steps 7-9 and A, B and C. I don't know how I'm supposed to do the string formatting, drawing the circles, drawing a line connecting their centers and how to calculate the area and circumference. So when I run this, it does the first 6 steps and then the window shows up blank because I don't have the rest of the information. I have included a picture of what its supposed to look like, sorry that the circles got cut off, but that's what it kind of is supposed show. You can kind of see that the line connects the centers.
