The sun's rays are strongest at 0 degrees latitude.
The Equator. Latitude 0 degrees.
The equator receives direct rays from sun. It is present in front of sun.
There's no place where the angle of the sun's rays doesn't change. But the place thataverages the most direct rays for the longest time in the course of a year is the equator.That's zero latitude.That's probably why it's so warm there.
The distribution of incoming solar radiation during the course of a year is exactly equal at both poles, and neither of them ever receives any 'direct' 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"
From the Tropic of Cancer (23.45 degrees north) to the Tropic of Capricorn (23.45 degrees south).

It is in the South Polar Region! Add me On Facebook .. e.dionaldo@yahoo.com

From 0 degrees or the latitude of the equator, it is in line to receive the most direct rays of the sun, the higher up in latitude you go, less heat is given off, because there is a lower amount of direct sunlight entering the atmosphere.The higher the latitude the colder is gets.
tropic of cancer
The northern hemisphere receives fewer direct rays from the sun in January.

The Tropic of Cancer ... an imaginary line of latitude in the Northern Hemisphere ... receives direct sun rays on June 21.
it does not receives direct or slanting rays. it receives rays neither too much nor too less.
