I am sure it is not the most beautiful solution (it reflects my current level of expertise): In[18]:= pts={{1,2},{3,4},{1,5}}; In[19]:= F=(Abs[#[[1]]]<Pi/2)&&(Abs[#[[2]]]<Pi)&; In[20]:= F[{1,3}] Out[20]= True In[17]:= F/@pts Out[17]= {True,False,False} Let me know when you find a more elegant solution!
