The placement of the musicians of any ensemble depends on the preference of the conductor, but there is a common standard. Orchestras sit in a 180 degree arc formation so that every musician faces the conductor. This is true for most large preforming ensembles such as a concert band and sometimes smaller groups such as a brass quintet. The strings sit in the first few rows and the edges of the arc. If you are sitting in the audience the higher strings sit on the left side and the lower strings sit on the right, with violas, being the middle voice, sitting in the middle. The woodwinds sit behind the violas in the middle and the brass sit behind them. The horns sit on the left side (again, facing the stage), the trumpets sit in the middle and the low brass sit on the right. Since the bell of the horn faces backwards, any sound heard by the audience is reflected. By placing the horns in the back, the sound is easily reflected off of the back wall. In wind ensembles, the horns usually sit on the edge to make them easier to hear over the much larger brass family. However, every conductor may seat the ensemble differently.
