By convention, the plane has four quadrants: (1) the part where x and y are both positive, (2) the diametrically opposite part where x and y are both negative, (3) the part where x is negative and y is positive, and (4) the part where x is positive and y is negative.

An ordered pair can be used to represent a point in any one of these four quadrants.

For instance, (1,5) is in quadrant (1) because both the x and y values are positive; (-3,5) is in quadrant (3) because the x value is negative and the y value is positive.

What ordered pair is located on quadrant iii?

An ordered pair located in quadrant III has both of its coordinates negative. For example, the pair (-3, -5) is in quadrant III, where the x-value is -3 and the y-value is -5. This quadrant is characterized by points where the x-coordinate is less than zero and the y-coordinate is also less than zero.
