2nd quadrateral.................

Answer 2

Point (–2, 11) lies in Quadrant II or the second quadrant.

• A Quadrant in geometry is a region in a Cartesian Plane which is formed by the intersection of the X-axis and Y-axis.
• The X-axis and Y-axis intersect each other at 90°.
• The intersection of the X-axis and Y-axis divides the Cartesian plane into four regions.
• The four regions or Quadrants are named Quadrant I, Quadrant II, Quadrant III, and Quadrant IV.

In Quadrant I or First quadrant (x, y):- It is on the upper right side of the Cartesian plane. Both the coordinates x and y are positive.

x> 0 and y > 0.

In Quadrant II or second quadrant (-x, y):- It is on the upper left side of the Cartesian plane. In this quadrant x coordinates are negative and y coordinates are positive.

x > 0 and y < 0

In Quadrant III or Third quadrant (-x, -y):- It is on the lower left side of the Cartesian plane. Both the coordinates x and y are negative.

x < 0 and y < 0.

In Quadrant IV or fourth quadrant (x, -y):- It is on the lower right side of the Cartesian plane. In this quadrant x coordinates are positive and y coordinates are negative.

x > 0 and y < 0
