The Equator.
The equator
The latitude line that circles the globe at the exact midpoint between the North and South pole is known as the equator. It is located at 0 degrees latitude and divides the Earth into the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere. The equator is approximately 40,075 kilometers (24,901 miles) long.
The equator divides the earth between the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere
Since there is only 90 degrees on each hemisphere of the earth, north and south, the 90 degree north latitude would be north pole and 90 degrees south latitude is the south pole.

The Equator is at 0 degrees latitude. The South Pole is at the centre of the Southern Hemisphere. The South Pole is at 90 degrees S latitude. Every line of latitude between 0 and 90 S are in the Southern Hemisphere.
The Equator divides the Earth into the Northern Hemisphere and the Southern Hemisphere. Lines of latitude are parallel to the Equator both to the north and to the south.

There is no such latitude as "170° south". The greatest latitude is 90°, whether it'snorth or south. 90° north is the north pole. 90° south is the south pole.But ... whenever any location has a latitude that includes the word "south",that location is in the southern hemisphere.
Since there is only 90 degrees on each hemisphere of the earth, north and south, the 90 degree north latitude would be north pole and 90 degrees south latitude is the south pole.
Since there is only 90 degrees on each hemisphere of the earth, north and south, the 90 degree north latitude would be north pole and 90 degrees south latitude is the south pole.

Lines of latitude are found in both the North and the South Hemispheres.
