Answer:

The actual answer is D

The point (a, b) lies in the second quadrant. Then the correct option is B.

What is coordinate geometry?

Coordinate geometry is the study of geometry using the points in space. Using this, it is possible to find the distance between the points, the dividing line is m:n ratio, finding the mid-point of the line, etc.

If a < 0 and b > 0.

Then the point (a, b) is in Quadrant will be given as,

  1. If a > 0 and b > 0, then the points is in first quadrant.
  2. If a < 0 and b > 0, then the points is in second quadrant.
  3. If a < 0 and b < 0, then the points is in third quadrant.
  4. If a > 0 and b < 0, then the points is in fourth quadrant.

Thus, the point (a, b) lies in the second quadrant.

Then the correct option is B.
