MCQ
A point whose abscissa and ordinate are $2$ and $-5$ respectively, lies in :
  • A
    First quadrant.
  • B
    Second quadrant.
  • C
    Third quadrant.
  • Fourth quadrant.

Answer

Correct option: D.
Fourth quadrant.
Abscissa is $= 2\ ($positive intercept on $X-$ axis$)$
and ordinate $= -5\ ($ negative intercept on $Y-$ axis$)$
so $X-$ value is positive and $Y-$ value is negative, i.e. Fourth Quadrant.
