Problem Statement

Let ABC ABC be an equilateral triangle and P P in its interior. The distances from P P to the triangle's sides are denoted by a2,b2,c2 a^2, b^2,c^2 respectively, where a,b,c>0 a,b,c>0. Find the locus of the points P P for which a,b,c a,b,c can be the sides of a non-degenerate triangle.
