Answer:

Quadrant 2

Explanation:

Given


\theta = 115^o

Required

The quadrant

We have:


0^o < \theta < 90^o --- quadrant 1


90^o < \theta < 180^o --- quadrant 2


180^o < \theta < 270^o --- quadrant 3


270^o < \theta < 360^o --- quadrant 4

So, by comparison; we have:


90^o < \theta < 180^o

Substitute 115 for
\theta


90^o < 115 < 180^o

The above is true for quadrant 2
