Let $ABC$ be an equilateral triangle of side length $2$. Point $A'$ is chosen on side $BC$ such that the length of $A'B$ is $k<1$. Likewise points $B'$ and $C'$ are chosen on sides $CA$ and $AB$. with $CB'=AC'=k$. Line segments are drawn from points $A',B',C'$ to their corresponding opposite vertices. The intersections of these line segments form a triangle, labeled $PQR$. Prove that $\Delta PQR$ is an equilateral triangle with side length ${4(1-k) \over \sqrt{k^2-2k+4}}$.
