The correct Answer is:
To determine in which quadrant each of the given points lies, we need to analyze the signs of their x and y coordinates. The Cartesian plane is divided into four quadrants based on the signs of the coordinates: 1. **First Quadrant (I)**: x > 0 and y > 0 2. **Second Quadrant (II)**: x < 0 and y > 0 3. **Third Quadrant (III)**: x < 0 and y < 0 4. **Fourth Quadrant (IV)**: x > 0 and y < 0 Now, let's analyze each point: ### Step 1: Analyze the point `(4, -2)` - x = 4 (positive) - y = -2 (negative) - Since x is positive and y is negative, this point lies in the **Fourth Quadrant (IV)**. ### Step 2: Analyze the point `(-2, -2)` - x = -2 (negative) - y = -2 (negative) - Since both x and y are negative, this point lies in the **Third Quadrant (III)**. ### Step 3: Analyze the point `(4, 3)` - x = 4 (positive) - y = 3 (positive) - Since both x and y are positive, this point lies in the **First Quadrant (I)**. ### Step 4: Analyze the point `(-3, 4)` - x = -3 (negative) - y = 4 (positive) - Since x is negative and y is positive, this point lies in the **Second Quadrant (II)**. ### Summary of Quadrants: - (4, -2) → Fourth Quadrant (IV) - (-2, -2) → Third Quadrant (III) - (4, 3) → First Quadrant (I) - (-3, 4) → Second Quadrant (II)
