function line = radicalAxis(circle1, circle2)
%RADICALAXIS Compute the radical axis (or radical line) of 2 circles.
%
%   L = radicalAxis(C1, C2)
%   Computes the radical axis of 2 circles.
%
%   Example
%   C1 = [10 10 5];
%   C2 = [60 50 30];
%   L = radicalAxis(C1, C2);
%   hold on; axis equal;axis([0 100 0 100]); 
%   drawCircle(C1);drawCircle(C2);drawLine(L);
