Question

Which quadrant is the point (
–
4,3) in?

Answer 1

The point (-4, 3) is located in the second quadrant. In the Cartesian coordinate system:

- The first quadrant is where both x and y coordinates are positive.
- The second quadrant is where x coordinates are negative and y coordinates are positive.
- The third quadrant is where both coordinates are negative.
- The fourth quadrant is where x coordinates are positive and y coordinates are negative.

Since the x-coordinate is -4 (negative) and the y-coordinate is 3 (positive), the point (-4, 3) is in the second quadrant.
