Think about it.
First quadrant, , ,
Second quadrant, ,,
Third quadrant, , ,
Fourth quadrant, , ,
Also include the in the first and third quadrant and on the x and y axes.
.
.
.
Solve for
and
That's two lines.

.
.
.
Pick points in each region and test the inequality.
Since the "=" sign is not included the regions are broken up into 8 regions not just 4 regions, so use the two lines and the two axes to demarcate each region.

In the first region, ,



False, this region is not in the solution region.
.
.
.
In the second region, ,


True, this region is part of the solution region.
.
.
.
Continue until you've tested a point in each region.
Remember the and axes are not included in the solution region.
