Question
A point whose abscissa is −3 and ordinate 2 lies in
Options
First quadrant
Second quadrant
Third quadrant
Fourth quadrant
Solution
As we know that
In the first quadrant x > 0, y >0
In the second quadrant x < 0 , y > 0
In the third quadrant x < 0 y < 0
In the fourth quadrant x > 0,y < 0
The point whose abscissa is −3 which is negative and ordinate 2 is positive, so this point lies in the second quadrant.
