C) A - iv, B - i, C - iii, D - ii
D) A - ii, B - i, C - iv, D - iii
Correct Answer: A
Solution :
The Tropic of Cancer, also referred to as the Northern Tropic is \[{{23}^{o}}26'13.4''\] north of the Equator. It is the most northerly circle of latitude on the Earth at which the Sun can be directly overhead. The Tropic of Capricorn, or Southern tropic, is and of the five major circles of latitude of a map of Earth. It is \[{{23}^{o}}26'22''\] south of the Equator. It marks the most southerly latitude at which the sun appear directly overhead. The Arctic Circle is the parallel of latitude that runs \[{{66}^{o}}33'39''\] (or\[{{66.56083}^{o}}\]) north of the Equator and is one of the five major circles of latitude that mark maps of the Earth. Everything north of this circle known as the Arctic, and the zone just to the south this circle is the Northern Temperate Zone. Antarctic Circle: 66° 33' 39" S. The Antarctic Circle is the parallel of latitude that runs 66° 33' 39" (or\[{{66.56083}^{o}}\]) south of the Equator and is one of the point major circles of latitude that mark maps of the Earth?s
