Declination is the angular difference between any two norths. A declination diagram is a part of the information?
in the lower margin on most large maps
What is the measure of the declination to the north?
Difference between Compass direction and True north.
True or false Declination is the difference between true north and magnetic north?
true
Does a star that is located 30 degrees north of the celestial equator have 30 degrees declination?
Yes. "Declination" on the celestial coordinate system is the counterpart of "latitude" on the terrestrial coordinate system. Positive and negative declination correspond respectively to north and south latitude.
What is the purpose of a declination?
Assuming the subject is magnetic declination the difference between the north pole and the true north pole this difference, is the magnetic declination, there is not information on what purpose it serves.

What is the term used for difference between true north and magnetic north?
Magnetic declination or variation.
What is the relationship between the time of year and the angle of the sun in the sky?
The angle of the Sun in the sky, its maximum height above the horizon, depends on a measurement called its declination, which varies over a range of ±23.5 degrees. The Sun's declination is zero at the equinoxes, and is +23.5 degrees at the summer solstice (in the northern hemisphere), the longest day, and -23.5 degrees at the winter solstice, the shortest day. Declination is the Sun's latitude on the celestial sphere, and the declination of any obect is equal to the latitude of a set of points along a line of latitude on the Earth's surface at which it passes overhead.
What is the name given to the difference between true north and magnetic north?
