Answer

$Quadrant II$

Steps

Step 1 ：The cosine of an angle is zero when the angle is $\frac{π}{2}$ or $\frac{3 π}{2}$ (90 or 270 degrees). This means that the angle is either in Quadrant II or Quadrant III.

Step 2 ：However, the tangent of an angle is negative when the angle is in Quadrant II or Quadrant IV.

Step 3 ：Therefore, the only quadrant that satisfies both conditions is Quadrant II.

Step 4 ： $Quadrant II$
