Three plane mirrors form an equilateral triangle with each side of length . There is a small hole at a distance from one of the corners as shown in the figure. A ray of light is passed through the hole at an angle and can only come out through the same hole. The cross section of the mirror configuration and the ray of light lie on the same plane.
