Problem Statement

Three unit circles ω1\omega_1, ω2\omega_2, and ω3\omega_3 in the plane have the property that each circle passes through the centers of the other two. A square SS surrounds three circles in such a way that each of its four sides is tangent to at least one of ω1\omega_1, ω2\omega_2, and ω3\omega_3. Find the side length of the square SS.
