In which quadrant does the ordered pair (5, -6) lie?

Asked by Rednaxel

Answer (3)

The coordinate (5,-6) lies in the fourth coordinate, because the first is x positive y positive, the second is x negative and y positive, the third is x negative and y negative, and the fourth is x positive y negative. This is x positive y negative, so it is in the fourth quadrant.

The ordered pair (5, -6) lies in the Fourth Quadrant, where the x-coordinate is positive and the y-coordinate is negative. This is determined by the signs of the coordinates. Quadrant IV specifically has positive x values and negative y values.
