yes it does but not for too long as the north and south poles are furthest land or ice away from the equater. but they do get long stretches of almost total darkness and less sunlight on most days and what they get is not high in the sky sun but rather low on the horizon
The earth's rotational axis in reality is tilted such that light would reach every place on the earth as it orbits the sun. Antarctica has a summer of endless sun as does the north pole. While one pole is in its summer, the other is in its winter.
Yes, and it is a shallow angle, as the Sun does not get very high in the sky.
If the Earth rotated in the same plane as its orbit, the sunlight at the poles would be at a constant angle of almost 90 degrees, and both poles would be in permanent twilight as the Sun appear to circle along the horizon.
But because of the tilt of the Earth, there are two extremes at the North Pole. The Sun rises on the horizon at the March equinox and is up continuously for 6 months, reaching a maximum of about 23.45 degrees above the horizon as it circles. Then it descends until, at the September equinox, it dips below the horizon, not to rise again during the 6 months of winter night.
At the South Pole, the seasons are reversed. The Sun is up from September to March, and below the horizon from March to September.
The sun rises at the South Pole about September 21 and sets about March 21. During that six-month period the sun eventually rises to about 23.5 degrees above the horizon.
Your answer, then, depends on what you mean by 'direct rays'.
Because of the tilt of the earth the poles experience a 6-month darkness and 6-month daylight. In fact they're not quite as long as that as at the changeover there is a period where the sun is just glimpsed going round the horizon.
No, sunlight reaches the poles in a more or less straight line from the sun.
no,only in in north pole
No, never.
True
No
the equator receives direct rays from the sun and the poles receive indirect rays.
The sun's most direct rays strike the earth at a 90 degree angle. The most northern latitude at which this occurs (at summer solstice) is the tropic of cancer. The southernmost latitude to receive the sun's vertical light is known as the tropic of capricorn. Midway between these two latitudes is the equator. Can't see "the following"

alpha rays follow north pole of magnet and beta rays south pole.
The tropic of Cancer is 23° North of the Equator. It represents the point where the Sun can be directly overhead. If you are any further north, the Sun can not be overhead. The corresponding feature in the southern hemisphere is the Tropic of Capricorn. As to the Sun's direct rays, they can be anywhere from the South Pole to the North Pole. Those two points and everything in between receives the Sun's direct rays at some time during the year.

No, in fact even on the summer solstice at either pole, the sun is pretty low in the sky.
the most direct solar rays strike the Southern Hemisphere .
All lattitudes from 22.5 degrees North to 22.5 degrees South of the equator receive vertical or direct rays twice every year as the tilted earth circles the sun.

True. Throughout the year, different parts of Earth receive the Sun's most direct rays. So, when the North Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's summer in the Northern Hemisphere. And when the South Pole tilts toward the Sun, it's winter in the Northern Hemisphere.
