Question

The point (2,3) lies in the __________.

• A. $1^{st}$ Quadrant
• B. $2^{nd}$ Quadrant
• C. $3^{rd}$ Quadrant
• D. $4^{th}$ Quadrant

Answer 1

The correct option is A $1^{st}$ Quadrant

Given point (2,3). Here, the x coordinate and the y coordinate is positive. Hence it lies in the $1^{st}$ Quadrant.
In the $1^{st}$ Quadrant, both x and y coordinates are positive.
In the $2^{nd}$Quadrant, x coordinate is negative and y coordinate is positive.
In the $3^{rd}$ Quadrant, both x and y coordinates are negative.
In the $4^{th}$Quadrant, x coordinate is positive and y coordinate is negative.
