An Area in Skew Coordinates

Problem

Let A(1,1)A(1,-1), B(3,0)B(3,0), C(2,1)C(2,1). The region DD consists of all points PP satisfying

AP=λAB+μAC,1λ2, 0μ1.\overrightarrow{AP}=\lambda\overrightarrow{AB}+\mu\overrightarrow{AC},\qquad 1\leqslant\lambda\leqslant 2,\ 0\leqslant\mu\leqslant 1.

Find the area of DD.
