Graph the coordinate plane with 4 quadrants as shown below.
\![\"graph](\"/userfiles/image/Library/Algebra1/graph_coordinate_plane.gif\")
Observe the graph, one of the coordinate of a point is negative while the other the point is positive in two quadrants II and IV.
\The general form of coordinate point in XY - coordinate plane is ![\"\"](\"/test/fckeditor/editor/plugins/fckeditor_wiris/integration/showimage.php?formula=15e9b529dcd776622c0e860a18231f4f.png\")
