Question

The point \( (2\sqrt{7}, -3) \) lies in which quadrant?

• A. First
• B. Second
• C. Third
• D. Fourth

Hint:

The sign of coordinates determines the quadrant: - First Quadrant: \( (+, +) \) - Second Quadrant: \( (-, +) \) - Third Quadrant: \( (-, -) \) - Fourth Quadrant: \( (+, -) \)

Answer 1

The Correct Option is D

The quadrants are defined as:
1. First Quadrant: \( (+, +) \)
2. Second Quadrant: \( (-, +) \)
3. Third Quadrant: \( (-, -) \)
4. Fourth Quadrant: \( (+, -) \)
Given \( (2\sqrt{7}, -3) \), since \( x>0 \) and \( y<0 \), it lies in the fourth quadrant.
