Equation of circle touching a parabola Suppose we have a parabola $y^2=4x$  . Now, how to write equation of circle touching parabola at $(4,4)$ and passing thru focus?
I know that for this parabola focus will lie at $(1,0)$ so we may assume general equation of circle and satisfy the points in it . hence
$$x^2 +y^2 + 2gx + 2fy +c =0$$ should be equation of general circle but on satisfying given points we get 2 equations and 3 variables . I think I am missing something, what to do?

the tangent to the parabola at $(4, 4)$ has slope $1/2$ so the radius has slope $-2.$ let the center of the circle touching the parabola $y^2 = 4x$ at $(4,4)$ be 
$x = 4 + t, y = 4 - 2t$. now equating the radius $$5t^2 = (3+t)^2 + (4-2t)^2$$
you can find $t$ which will give you the center and the radius of the circle.
