Since each triplet of Yff circles are congruent and pass through a single point, they obey Johnson's theorem. As a result, in each case, there is a fourth circle congruent to the original three and passing through the points of pairwise intersection. These circles have radii

The circle functions of the Johnson circles do not correspond to any Kimberling centers, and the Johnson-Yff circles do not pass through any Kimberling centers.
The sets of points (,

 systems.
