Question

$p(x,y)$ lies in $x<0$ and $y>0$ in $m$ quadrant. Find $m$

Answer 1

Solution:-

$p(x,y)$-

Case I:-

$x>0$

$y>0$

p lies in $1^{st}$ quadrant.

Case II:-

$x<0$

$y>0$

p lies in $2^{nd}$ quadrant.

Case III:-

$x<0$

$y<0$

p lies in $3^{rd}$ quadrant.

Case IV:-

$x>0$

$y>0$

p lies in $4^{th}$ quadrant.

Given that $p(x,y)$ lies when $x<0$ and $y>0$ in m quadrant.

$\because x<0$ and $y>0$

$\therefore$ p lies in $2^{nd}$ quadrant.

$\therefore$ Value of m = 2

Hence, the correct answer is 2.
