Find the probability of random line passing through two circles given that it passes through the first.

Given two circles C​1​ and C2​​ in a plane with radius r1 = 4​​, r2 = 5 respectively and the distance between centers of C1 ​​and C​2 is 15, find the probability that a randomly chosen line​​ will cross both circles given that the chosen line crosses C1.

I tried to relate it to the common tangents but couldn't get too far.
