Two circles are said to be [i]orthogonal[/i] if they intersect in two points, and their tangents at either point of intersection are perpendicular. Two circles $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$ with radii $10$ and $13$, respectively, are externally tangent at point $P$. Another circle $\omega_3$ with radius $2\sqrt2$ passes through $P$ and is orthogonal to both $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$. A fourth circle $\omega_4$, orthogonal to $\omega_3$, is externally tangent to $\omega_1$ and $\omega_2$. Compute the radius of $\omega_4$.
