(r, −s)
Answer : B
Explanation
Step 1 − Coordinates of the given point are (r, −s).
Step 2 − Since the signs of the x and y coordinates of the point (r, −s) are positive and negative respectively, the point lies in the quadrant 4.
(−y, −z)
Answer : C
Explanation
Step 1 − Coordinates of the given point are (−y, −z).
Step 2 − Since the signs of the x and y coordinates of the point (−y, −z) are negative and negative respectively, the point lies in the quadrant 3.
(y, z)
Answer : D
Explanation
Step 1 − Coordinates of the given point are (y, z).
Step 2 − Since the signs of the x and y coordinates of the point (y, z) are positive and positive respectively, the point lies in the quadrant 1.
(−m, n)
Answer : A
Explanation
Step 1 − Coordinates of the given point are (−m, n).
Step 2 − Since the signs of the x and y coordinates of the point (−m, n) are negative and positive respectively, the point lies in the quadrant 2.
(a, 0)
Answer : C
Explanation
Step 1 − Coordinates of the given point are (a, 0).
Step 2 − Since the sign of the x coordinate of the point (a, 0) is positive and y coordinate is zero, the point lies on the positive x axis.
(−a, b)
Answer : B
Explanation
Step 1 − Coordinates of the given point are (−a, b).
Step 2 − Since the signs of the x and y coordinates of the point (−a, b) are negative and positive respectively, the point lies in the quadrant 2.
(0, −b)
Answer : D
Explanation
Step 1 − Coordinates of the given point are (0, −b).
Step 2 − Since the sign of the x coordinate of the point (0, −b) is zero and y coordinate is negative, the point lies on the negative y axis.
(a, −b)
Answer : B
Explanation
Step 1 − Coordinates of the given point are (a, −b).
Step 2 − Since the signs of the x and y coordinates of the point (a, −b) are positive and negative respectively, the point lies in the quadrant 4.
(x, y)
Answer : C
Explanation
Step 1 − Coordinates of the given point are (x, y).
Step 2 − Since the signs of the x and y coordinates of the point (x, y) are positive and positive respectively, the point lies in the quadrant 1.
(−x, −y)
Answer : A
Explanation
Step 1 − Coordinates of the given point are (−x, −y).
Step 2 − Since the signs of the x and y coordinates of the point (−x, −y) are negative and negative respectively, the point lies in the quadrant 3.
