1. Answer:

   the point (−7, −12) lie in the third quadrant. (iii) The x co-ordinate of the point (−23, 4) is negative and its y co-ordinate is positive.

2. GIVEN

   We are given some points with their abscissa and ordinate

   TO FIND

   We need to find the quadrant in which the points lie

   THEORY

   We know that there are 4 quadrants in total

   (I) Ist Quadrant :- ( +x , +y)

   (ii)2nd Quadrant :- ( -x , +y)

   (iii)3rd Quadrant :- ( -x, -y )

   (iv)4th Quadrant :- ( +x , -y )

   SOLUTION

   (I) ( -7, -12 ) :- 3rd Quadrant as both abscissa and ordinate are negative

   (ii) (-6 , 0) :- 2nd Quadrant as abscissa is negative and Ordinate is positive

   (iii) ( 5, -3) :- 4th Quadrant as abscissa is positive and ordinate is negative

   (iv) (0, -3 ) :- 4th Quadrant as abscissa is positive and ordinate is negative
