The closest the earth gets to the sun is 146 million km (91 million miles) at perihelion, during winter in the Northern Hemisphere, which is summer in the Southern Hemisphere.

We are farthest away at aphelion, during Northern Hemisphere summer, maximum distance is 152 million km (94.5 million miles).

The average distance between the sun and the earth is 149 million kilometers (93 million miles).

The earths angular momentum when it is nearest to the sun is greater then when it is farthest from the sun?

This statement is incorrect. Earth's angular momentum remains constant throughout its orbit around the Sun. Although Earth moves faster when it is closer to the Sun due to Kepler's second law of planetary motion, this is balanced by its greater distance from the Sun when it is farthest, resulting in a constant angular momentum.
