The diagram shows the curve \(C\) with equation \(y = 3 x - 4 \sqrt { x } + 2\) and the tangent to \(C\) at the point \(A\). Given that \(A\) has \(x\)-coordinate 4,
  1. show that the tangent to \(C\) at \(A\) has the equation \(y = 2 x - 2\). The shaded region is bounded by \(C\), the tangent to \(C\) at \(A\) and the \(y\)-axis.
  2. Find the area of the shaded region.
