Identifying Quadrants

Front

What are the four quadrants of the Cartesian coordinate system?

Back

I: (x, y) where x > 0 and y > 0; II: (x, y) where x < 0 and y > 0; III: (x, y) where x < 0 and y < 0; IV: (x, y) where x > 0 and y < 0.

How can you determine the quadrant of a point given its coordinates?

Back

By analyzing the signs of the x and y coordinates: both positive in Quadrant I, x negative and y positive in Quadrant II, both negative in Quadrant III, and x positive and y negative in Quadrant IV.
