Which pair is correct in India's location?

Answer and explanation

Correct answer: Tropic of Cancer (23^\circ 30'N)

The direct answer is A: the Tropic of Cancer is at 23°30′N latitude. Latitude tells how far a place is north or south of the Equator, so the N sign is important. Option A is correct because the Tropic of Cancer is a latitude located at approximately 23°30′ north. Option B is wrong because 23°30′N is a latitude, whereas India’s Standard Meridian is 82°30′E longitude. Option C is wrong because the Equator is 0° latitude, not 82°30′E. Option D is wrong because the Arabian Sea lies to the west of India, not the east; the Bay of Bengal lies to the east. A weak student should carefully compare both the number and the direction symbol: 23°30′N refers to the Tropic of Cancer, while 82°30′E refers to standard time. Memory cue: Cancer is north at 23.5 degrees; IST is east at 82.5 degrees.
