There's only one of those. It's called the "Arctic Circle".
=the southern hemisphere is one half of the planet. which would be south of the equator so, from the equator which equals zero to 180 degrees from the equator== hemisphere= half ball== 180 degrees+180 degrees=360 degrees which is the amount of degrees in a ball=
Lines of longitude (meridians) run north/south and measure angular distance east and west of the prime meridian to a maximum of 180 degrees east or west. Lines of latitude (parallels) measure angular distance from the equator. The maximum is 90 degrees north or south of the equator.
If you start at the Earth's equator and travel due north half the distance to the North Pole, you will be located at 45 degrees North latitude.
23.27 (people round it to 23.5) degrees north
The equator is the line that runs straight around the middle of the earth, at zero degrees of latitude. The North Pole is at 90 degrees north and the South Pole is at 90 degrees south, so they are both equidistant from the equator. The Arctic Circle is a line of latitude that runs around the earth at 66 degrees and 33 minutes north, that means that it is closer to the equator than the South Pole.
The Tropic of Cancer is 23 and a half degrees north of the Equator.

Yes.
Half. The other half is south of the celestial equator.It depends on the where you're looking from (at the equator it is half and half). If you are at latitude 30 degrees north, then about 2/3 of "your" sky is north of the celestial equator (30 degrees north means that you are one-third of the way north from the equator to the North Pole.)
The "tropical latitudes" are the latitudes within 23.5 degrees of the equator, both north and south of it. The half of the "tropics" between the equator and the Arctic Circle is the half between the equator and 23.5 degrees north latitude. The line at 23.5 degrees north latitude that marks the northern boundary of the tropics is the "Tropic of Cancer".
The tropics.
More or less. The largest island of the UK - Great Britain - sits between 50 and 59 degrees north of the equator. Therefore - its just north of the half-way point (45 degrees) between the equator and the north pole.
