The diagram shows a shaded triangle, ABC, drawn on a 1 cm square grid. The equation of the line AC is y = -3/2x + 1.
- (a)The shaded region inside triangle ABC is defined by three inequalities. One of these inequalities is y > -3/2x + 1. Find the other two inequalities.[2]
- (b)Work out the area of triangle ABC.[2]
