Dear Lucky
 
 

If all the three vertices of a triangle lie on one side of a line , all the interior points of that triangle lie on the same side of that line. 

Now, Substituting the coordinates of the points (1,3), (5,0) and (-1,2) in 3x+2y, we get the following values, 

8,15 and 1 which all are +ve.

therefore, all the points lying inside the triangle formed by given points satisfy 

3x+2y >= 0 

In the same way, all the points lying inside the triangle formed by given points also satisfy 

2x-3y-12

Thank you sir, I really got struck with that problem.now I get how to think for such type of questions

Is anybody having a better approach to deal with these types of questions can't we just take out specific equation of lines of family of lines which can be done by solving not just checking by the options
Aur in this question we have to check the answers just by putting them in options

We can even check by position of a point with reapect to a line concept
Firstly plot the points rougly to get the idea that a point should be above or below the 3 sides of the triangle(you need to take out that) and get the required condition without the options. ....
