Functions f and g are defined as follows:

\(f(x) = \frac{2x+1}{2x-1}\) for \(x \neq \frac{1}{2}\),

\(g(x) = x^2 + 4\) for \(x \in \mathbb{R}\).

(a) The diagram shows part of the graph of \(y = f(x)\). State the domain of \(f^{-1}\).

(b) Find an expression for \(f^{-1}(x)\).

(c) Find \(gf^{-1}(3)\).

(d) Explain why \(g^{-1}(x)\) cannot be found.

(e) Show that \(1 + \frac{2}{2x-1}\) can be expressed as \(\frac{2x+1}{2x-1}\). Hence find the area of the triangle enclosed by the tangent to the curve \(y = f(x)\) at the point where \(x = 1\) and the x- and y-axes.
