To find loci of a point

[saurabh]

As per figure attached circle A rotates in circular motion with center 1 and we have to move circle G moves horizontally in such a way that it touches circle A. So here we have to find loci of center 2 of circle G. The constraint is here is that the center 2 can only move along the horizontal line in figure and center 1 and cemter 2 on same line. Please solve this if u can.
