Answer:

Negative

Step-by-step explanation:

If the point (x,y) is in Quadrant III, then:

• The value of x is negative.

,

• The value of y is also negative.

,

• The value of r is always positive.

Thus, the given ratio:


(r)/(x)\equiv(r)/(-x)=\text{Negative}

The given ratio will be negative.
