Let the tangents drawn from $\mathrm{P}(-1,-1)$ to the circle $x^2+y^2-2 x-4 y-4=0$ touch the circle at the points $\mathrm{A}$ and $\mathrm{B}$. Then the area of the triangle $\mathrm{PAB}$ (in square units) is
  1. $\frac{24}{13}$
  2. $\frac{24}{7}$
  3. $\frac{8}{13}$
  4. $\frac{3}{13} 4^{2 / 3}$
