Question

4.Without Plotting the points indicate the quadrant in which they will lie, if
(A) Ordinate is 5 and abscissa is -3
(B) Abscissa is -5 and ordinate is -3
(C) Abscissa is -5 and ordinate is 3
(D) Ordinate is 5 and abscissa is 3

Answer 1

Answer:

(A) Ordinate is 5 and abscissa is – 3

→ (– 3, 5) : II quadrant

(B) Abscissa is – 5 and ordinate is – 3

→ (– 5, – 3) : III quadrant

(C) Abscissa is – 5 and ordinate is 3

→ (– 5, 3) : II quadrant

(D) Ordinate is 5 and abscissa is 3

→ (3, 5) : I quadrant

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that :

→ I quadrant : (+, +)

→ II quadrant : (–, +)

→ III quadrant : (–, –)

→ IV quadrant : (–, +)
