Through a random point from the edge of the regular tetrahedron is drawn a plane, parallel to the plane . The plane constructed intersects the edges and at the points respectively. Let the point is the midpoint of the altitude through the vertex of the tetrahedron and is the center of gravity (barycenter) of the triangle . Prove that the measure of the angle doesn't depend on the position of the point . (Ivan Tonov)

There are given one black box and white boxes ( is a random natural number). White boxes are numbered with the numbers . In them are put balls. It is allowed the following rearrangement of the balls: if in the box with number there are exactly balls, that box is made empty - one of the balls is put in the black box and the other balls are put in the boxes with numbers: .
