What is the angular distance of each pole from the equator?
Think it through first, then pick an option.
- a 45°
- b 23.5°
- c 66.5°
- d 90°
Answer and explanation
Correct answer: d 90°
The book says each pole is 90° from the equator in angular distance.
Why the other options are wrong
- a 45°: 45° is not the pole's distance; each pole is 90° from the equator.
- b 23.5°: 23.5° is the latitude of the Tropics of Cancer and Capricorn.
- c 66.5°: 66.5° is the latitude of the Arctic and Antarctic Circles, not of the pole.
