In my solution of the problem, I am able to generate
rays in multiple angles,  It works like this.

When the ray traverses a vertice of the polygon, the ray is
marked as invalid and a new ray is generated.  This is 
accomplished recursively.  This continues until a ray
is generated that does not traverse any vertice.

Not elegant, but it works.
