Additional Information :-
The exact location of a point on a plane is presented or depicted in the form of (x, y) .
Here x and y are known as the coordinates of the point.
Abscissa :- It lies on x- axis ( horizontal line )
Ordinate :- It lies on y - axis ( vertical line)
Cartesian plane is divided into four quadrants :-
Quadrant 1 :- (+x, +y)
⟹ In Quadrant 1 both abscissa and ordinate are positive.
Quadrant 2 :- (-x, +y)
⟹ In Quadrant 2 abscissa is negative and ordinate is positive.
Quadrant 3 :- (-x, -y)
⟹ In Quadrant 3 abscissa is negative and ordinate is also negative.
Quadrant 4 :- (+x, -y)
⟹ In Quadrant 4 abscissa is positive and ordinate is negative.
