There must be a drawing that goes with this. The angle between a radius and the tangent at the point the radius hits the circle is a right angle, does that do what you need? Without further information I don't see how we answer this.

You need information because you can put the circles so that it intersect and $AB$ can vary. I suppose that $angle ACB =90^circ$ is hypothesis.

By the triangle inequality $$AC+CB>AB$$ or
$$2r+r>AB$$ or $$AB<3r.$$
Now, by the triangle inequality again we obtain
$$AB+r>2r,$$ which gives
$$r<AB<3r.$$
