In which octant does each of the given points lie?

(i) (-4, -1, -6)


(ii) (2, 3, -4)


(iii) (-6, 5, -1)


(iv) (4, -3, -2)


(v) (-1, -6, 5)


(vi) (4, 6, 8)


The position of a point in a octant is signified by the signs of the x, y, z coordinates.


Here is a table showing signs of the x, y, z coordinates in all the octants.



According to the table


(i) (-4, -1, -6) lies in octant VII


(ii) (2, 3, -4) lies in octant V


(iii) (-6, 5, -1) lies in octant VI


(iv) (4, -3, -2) lies in octant VIII


(v) (-1, -6, 5) lies in octant III


(vi) (4, 6, 8) lies in octant I
