Correct option is A
The correct answer is (a) South Pole (90°S).
Explanation:
The South Pole (90°S) is the most distant latitude from India.
India is located in the northern hemisphere, and the South Pole lies at the extreme end of the southern hemisphere, making it farther from India compared to other latitudes.
Other options:
- (B) Arctic Circle (66°30'N): This is much closer to India because it is situated in the northern hemisphere.
- (C) North Pole (90°N): While it is distant, it is closer to India than the South Pole, as the North Pole is located at the northernmost point, while the South Pole is at the opposite end.
- (D) Tropic of Capricorn (23°30'S): This latitude is much closer to India, as it is situated in the southern hemisphere but not too far from the equator.
