quadrant 1
The sine function is positive in the I & II quadrants.
The cosine function is positive in the I & IV quadrants.
This means the only quadrant that both trigonometric functions are positive is quadrant I.
Given that
and
, we can determine the quadrant in which the angle
lies:
1.
means that the sine of
is negative. This occurs in the third and fourth quadrants since the sine function is negative in those quadrants.
2.
means that the cosine of
is positive. This occurs in the first and fourth quadrants since the cosine function is positive in those quadrants.
Therefore, the conditions
are satisfied in the fourth quadrant.
So,
lies in the fourth quadrant.
