Question

It is may 5 and you are somewhere in the northern hemisphere if you determine that the noon sun is 51 above your southern horizon where is the latitude of your location?

Answer 1

Answer:

The latitude of my location is 62°

Explanation:

As per the relationship between the height of sun above horizon and the latitude, we have:

$h = 113 - Lat$

Inserting the given value of height which is 51 degrees, we get

$Lat = 113 - 51 = 62^o$

Therefore the latitude of the location is 62 degrees north.
