Question

In which quadrant or on which axis each of the following point lie? $(-3,5),(2,0),(-3,-5),(4,-1)$

Answer 1

In the first quadrant, $x$ and $y$-coordinate of a point are positive.

In the second quadrant, $x$-coordinate is negative and $y$-coordinate

is positive. So, $(-3,5)$ lies in second quadrant.

In the third quadrant, $x$ and $y$-coordinate are negative. So, $(-3,-5)$ lies in the third quadrant.

In the fourth quadrant, $x$-coordinate is positive and $y$-coordinate

is negative. So, $(4,-1)$ lies in fourth quadrant.

Any point on the $x$-axis have the value of $y$-coordinate $=0$

So, $(2,0)$ lies on the $x$-axis.
