Final answer:

The correct quadrant in which θ lies is Quadrant IV.

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the given conditions, we can determine the quadrant in which θ lies.

Given that tangent(θ) < 0 and secant(θ) > 0, we can conclude the following:

  • In Quadrant II, both tangent and secant are negative.
  • In Quadrant IV, tangent is negative and secant is positive.

Therefore, the correct answer is Quadrant IV.
