The South Pole is the southernmost point on Earth. The Equator is a line running circumferentially around the Earth and is midway between the poles. The Equator is south of the North Pole and north of the South Pole.All lines of latitude -- including the Equator -- are north of the South Pole.

How does the coriolis effect influences winds?
The Coriolis effect causes an air mass moving from the North Pole to the equator to bend to the west, or turn toward the right. In the Southern Hemisphere the opposite happens.

What is the name of the line joining the poles at right angles to the equator?
"Meridian of longitude"Your description of the line is interesting. Can you draw a line from north pole to south pole that does NOT form right angles with the equator ???
You are standing on Earths equator so Which way is Polaris the North star?
If you are right at the Equator, you will not be able to see Polaris. If you could, it would be right on the horizon, but ground haze and obstructions would almost certainly hide it from view.
