On a rectangular hy perbola $x^2-y^2= a ^2, a >0$, three points $A, B, C$ are taken as follows: $A=(-a, 0) ; B$ and $C$ are placed symmetrically with respect to the $X$-axis on the branch of the hyperbola not containing $A$. Suppose that the $\triangle A B C$ is equilateral. If the side length of the $\triangle A B C$ is $k a$, then $k$ lies in the interval
