Solution
If P(–1, 1), Q(3, –4), R(1, –1), S(–2, –3) and T(–4, 4) are plotted on the graph paper, then the point(s) in the fourth quadrant are Q and R.
Explanation:
In point P(–1, 1), x-coordinate is –1 unit and y-coordinate is 1 unit, so it lies in IInd quadrant.
Similarly, we can plot all the points Q(3, –4), R(1, –1), S(–2, –3) and T(–4, 4),
It is clear from the graph that points R and Q lie in fourth quadrant.
