Solution: 2023-17 Comparing area of triangles

Let \(f(x) = x^4 + (2-a)x^3 – (2a+1)x^2 + (a-2)x + 2a\) for some \(a \geq 2\). Draw two tangent lines of its graph at the point \((-1,0)\) and \((1,0)\) and let \(P\) be the intersection point. Denote by \(T\) the area of the triangle whose vertices are \((-1,0), (1,0)\) and \(P\). Let \(A\) be the area of domain enclosed by the interval \([-1,1]\) and the graph of the function on this interval. Show that \(T \leq 3A/2.\)
