Circular Billiards Table (Posted on 2013-04-23) Difficulty: 3 of 5

Given a circular billiards table with center O,
radius r, and no pockets. A cue ball (with a
radius negligible compared to r) is placed at
point A such that 0<|OA|≤r. The ball is struck
and bounces off the cushion twice before
returning to point A.

How was the direction of the shot determined?
