Given a circle and a total length 'L', calculate point where 2 tangent lines curve

This gif shows what I want to achieve, except the fact that 1 input and output are switched.

Instead of giving the point where the tangent lines converge/end (Y value slider) and receiving the total curvelength from Grasshopper.

I’d like to be able to input the total length and receive the point.
Does anyone have any ideas?

I can achieve by making use of Galapagos and it’s accurate enough for my application but I’d rather have a real time solution instead of letting Galapagos solve for a minute.
