4th quadrant

Explanation:

Unless you deviate from the standard convention for the cartesian coordinate system you will have a different answer. Positive x values are to the right of the cartesian plane and Negative y values beneath the x- axis. If positive x and y values are in quadrant one, then if labelled anticlockwise the above coordinates will fall into quadrant four.
