Problem Statement

Given is a finite set of points MM and an equilateral triangle Δ\Delta in the plane. It is known that for any subset MMM' \subset M, which has no more than 99 points, can be covered by two translations of the triangle Δ\Delta. Prove that the entire set MM can be covered by two translations of Δ\Delta.
