This math topic revolves around using Cartesian coordinates to determine the area of obtuse triangles on a grid, focusing only on positive coordinates. It is a specific subset of learning how to calculate areas of triangles and utilizes visual representations (diagrams) to define the vertices of the triangles. Students are tasked with interpreting these images, extracting coordinate information, and applying formulas to compute the triangle's area. The worksheet contains multiple questions that vary in difficulty, aimed at enhancing students' abilities to apply geometric concepts within a coordinate system.
