Question

Which point A (7, 2), B (−4, −3), C (−5, 1), D (6, −2) lies in the second quadrant?

Options

• A

• B

• C

• D

Answer 1

C

Explanation:

To identify which point lies in the second quadrant, recall:

In the second quadrant, x is negative and y is positive.

A (7, 2) → x > 0, y > 0 → First quadrant

B (−4, -3) → x < 0, y < 0 → Third quadrant

C (−5, 1) → x < 0, y > 0 → Second quadrant

D (6, −2) → x > 0, y < 0 → Fourth quadrant
