Question 16

In the figure below, semicircles with centers at $A$ and $B$ and with radii $2$ and $1,$ respectively, are drawn in the interior of, and sharing bases with, a semicircle with diameter $\overline{JK}.$ The two smaller semicircles are externally tangent to each other and internally tangent to the largest semicircle. A circle centered at $P$ is drawn externally tangent to the two smaller semicircles and internally tangent to the largest semicircle. What is the radius of the circle centered at $P?$
