What is the effect on the ocean when Earth the sun and the moon form a right angle?
I think I understand what you mean. The gravitational force of the sun and the moon pulls the ocean, and this is what causes the changing tides, as the earth spins. When the moon is on the same side of the earth as the sun, or on the direct opposite side from the sun, it's gravitational force compliments the suns force and the tide comes in further and goes out further. This is called a Spring tide. In answer to your question, when the moon is not on the near or far side of the earth (when they make a right angle) the moon opposes the gravitational force of the sun and the tide does not come in as far or go out as far. This is called a Neap tide. The cycle of Spring and Neap tides therefore follows the cycle of the moon (new to full).
How far away is your moon from sun?

When the moon is in its new phase what can you infer about the opposite side of the moon?
The far side of the moon is always opposite of the visible side. When the moon is new, it is between the Sun and the earth. Since we see the dark side of the moon, the opposite side must be fully lit by the sun. Likewise when we see a gibbous moon, the far side would be a crescent. When we see a full moon, the far side is in complete darkness.
