Lines are

xy+2=03x+2y2=02x+y+1=0          (1) side BC(2) side CA(3) side AB

Solving the equations we get A is (-4, 7) B as (-1, 1)

and C as 25,85

If P (a, 2) is to lie inside the triangle ABC, both A and P must lie on the same side of BC, both B and P must lie on the same side of AB

xy+2<0 for x=4,y=7α2+2<0α<0

Again, 3x+2y2<0 for x=1,y=1

Lastly, 2x+y+1>0 for x=25,y=85

From (4), (5) and (6) we get 

32<α<23

Note that all the vertices are in the second quadrant. Hence, if a>0, the point (a, 2) lies in the first quadrant
