This math topic focuses on using the Cartesian grid to solve geometry problems, specifically finding missing coordinates of acute triangles to attain a given area, considering only positive coordinates. Students are required to apply their understanding of the formula for the area of a triangle and coordinate geometry. Each problem presents a different triangle on a Cartesian grid, with various specified areas, requiring students to determine the missing x or y coordinate. This practical application helps improve students' problem-solving skills and deepens their understanding of geometric concepts on the Cartesian plane.
