problem

Let ω\omega be the incircle of a fixed equilateral triangle ABCABC. Let ℓ\ell be a variable line that is tangent to ω\omega and meets the interior of segments BCBC and CACA at points PP and QQ, respectively. A point RR is chosen such that PR=PAPR = PA and QR=QBQR = QB. Find all possible locations of the point RR, over all choices of ℓ\ell.

Original LaTeX notation
Let $\omega$ be the incircle of a fixed equilateral triangle $ABC$. Let $\ell$ be a variable line that is tangent to $\omega$ and meets the interior of segments $BC$ and $CA$ at points $P$ and $Q$, respectively. A point $R$ is chosen such that $PR = PA$ and $QR = QB$. Find all possible locations of the point $R$, over all choices of $\ell$.
