Sorry for Interrupt. My answer was same of #Nahin but this solution is new to me.
How can we find the radius of two circles same?
$AC = AB$ , radius of the $\widehat{BC}$
$BC = AB$ , radius of the $\widehat{AB}$

Thus, $AC = BC$

radius of two big circle are same. let X be the point where little circle is tangent.
it is well known the center of little circle, tangent point are lies on $OB$.
$MO=OX$
$BX= BO+OX=BO+MO $
The placement of point $X$ is not clear to me.I didn't understand the $2$nd line of it.

Again a question. How can we say that $A$-centered circle will go through $B$?

Both have $AB$ as radius.....
Frankly, my dear, I don't give a damn.

You proved $BX=OB+OM$, not $AB=OB+OM$

Look carefully and you will notice that $BX$ and $AB$ are radii of the same circle centered $B$
