Question

Which point is in Quadrant IV?

-2,-5
1,3
-5,4
4,-1

Answer 1

To determine which point is in Quadrant IV, we need to consider the characteristics of the coordinates in each quadrant:

- Quadrant I: (x, y) where x > 0 and y > 0
- Quadrant II: (x, y) where x < 0 and y > 0
- Quadrant III: (x, y) where x < 0 and y < 0
- Quadrant IV: (x, y) where x > 0 and y < 0

Now, let's analyze the given points:

1. \((-2, -5)\): x = -2 (negative), y = -5 (negative) → Quadrant III
2. \((1, 3)\): x = 1 (positive), y = 3 (positive) → Quadrant I
3. \((-5, 4)\): x = -5 (negative), y = 4 (positive) → Quadrant II
4. \((4, -1)\): x = 4 (positive), y = -1 (negative) → Quadrant IV

Therefore, the point \((4, -1)\) is in Quadrant IV.
