If , then is non-negative, since we always assume that a square root in an equation is the non-negative root. Since the sine of is non-negative, our angle, measured counterclockwise from the positive x-axis, must be above the x-axis, since the sine function measures our height on the unit circle (with positive values above the x-axis and negative values below). The quadrants above the x-axis are Quadrants I and II, so this is your answer.
