$H_1=\frac{E^2 R}{\left(R+r_1\right)^2}$

$H_2=\frac{E^2 R}{\left(r+r_1\right)^2}$

$\frac{R}{\left(R+r_1\right)^2}=\frac{r}{\left(r+r_1\right)^2}$

$\frac{r+r_1}{R+r_1}=\frac{\sqrt{r}}{\sqrt{R}}$

$\sqrt{R} r_1+r \sqrt{R}=\sqrt{r} r_1+R \sqrt{r}$

$r_1(\sqrt{R}-\sqrt{r})=\sqrt{R r}(\sqrt{R}-\sqrt{r})$

$r_1=\sqrt{R r}$
