Which latitudinal line passes through the nearly middle part of India?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Tropic of Cancer

The direct answer is C: the Tropic of Cancer. A latitude is an imaginary east–west circle used to locate places north or south of the Equator. The Tropic of Cancer lies at about 23°30′N, or 23.5 degrees north latitude, and it crosses the nearly middle part of India. The reasoning is: India extends mainly north of the Equator, the important latitude near its middle is 23.5°N, and that line is the Tropic of Cancer; therefore C is correct. Option A, the Equator, is 0° latitude and passes south of India, not through its middle. Option B, the Tropic of Capricorn, is about 23.5°S, in the Southern Hemisphere. Option D, the Arctic Circle, is about 66.5°N and lies far north of India. Exam cue: Cancer means 23.5° north; Capricorn means 23.5° south.
