Question

In which quadrant does the point (-1, - 2) lies
​

Answer 1

Answer. (−1,−2) lies in third quadrant.

In any given coordinates  

(

x

,

y

)

, the sign of abscissa i.e,  

x

coordinate and the sign of ordinate i.e.  

y

coordinate, both together decide the quadrant in which the pont lies.

If both  

x

and  

y

are positive, the point lies in first quadrant;

if  

x

coordinate is negative and  

y

coordinate is positive, the point lies in second quadrant;

if both  

x

and  

y

are negative, the point lies in third quadrant; and

if  

x

coordinate is positive and  

y

coordinate is negative, the point lies in fourth quadrant.
