Problem Statement

Let ABCABC be an equilateral triangle, and let K,L,MK, L,M be points respectively on BC,CA,ABBC, CA, AB such that BK/KC=CL/LA=AM/MB=λBK/KC = CL/LA = AM/MB =\lambda . Find all values of λ\lambda such that the circle with BCBC as a diameter completely covers the triangle bounded by the lines AK,BL,CMAK,BL,CM.
