This equation should appear familiar. It has the same form as our edge equations.
Given the redness of the three vertices, we can set up the following linear system.


with the solution:

By the way, we've already computed these matrix entries, they're exactly the coefficients of our edge equations.


So the all the additional work that we need to do to interpolate is a single matrix multiplication and compute the equivalent of an extra edge equation for each parameter.
