Question

In which quadrant do the given points lie?
(i) (−6, 5)
(ii) (−3, −2)
(iii) (2, −9)

Answer 1

(i) Points of the type (-,+) lie in the second quadrant.
Hence, the point (-6,5) lies in quadrant II.

(ii) Points of the type (-,-) lie in the third quadrant.
Hence, the point (-3,-2) lies in quadrant III.

(iii) Points of the type (+,-) lie in the fourth quadrant.
Hence, the point (-6,5) lies in quadrant IV.
