document.write( "Note Cartesian Plane is made up of 4 quadrants; I,II,III & IV
\n" );
document.write( "Quadrant I both x and y values are positive. (Quadrants named counter-clockwise)
\n" );
document.write( "Here quadrant II has Pt(-3,4) and the Pt(-5,4) you refer to in 2nd question
\n" );
document.write( "Pt(-5,4)is 5 units to the left of the y-axis and 4 units above the x-axis
\n" );
document.write( "As to: \"the point (a,b) is _______ in quadrant II when a<0\"
\n" );
document.write( "considering, when a<0, Pt(a,b) may be in the III quadrant, depending the y value b.
