Let $C$ be the centre of the circle $x^2 + y^2 - x + 2y = \frac{11}{4}$ and $P$ be a point on the circle. A line passes through the point $C$, makes an angle of $\frac{\pi}{4}$ with the line $CP$ and intersects the circle at the points $Q$ and $R$. Then the area of the triangle $PQR$ (in unit$^2$) is\\
(1) 2\\
(2) $2\sqrt{2}$\\
(3) $8\sin\frac{\pi}{8}$\\
(4) $8\cos\frac{\pi}{8}$
