How many South American countries does the Tropic of Cancer touch?

Answer 1

The Tropic of Cancer also is called the Northern Tropic. For it's found in the Northern Hemisphere. Therefore, the only Latin American countries through which it may run are the eight countries north of the Panama Canal, and south of the United States. Of those countries, the Tropic only runs through Mexico.

Answer 2

The Tropic of Cancer is found in the Northern Hemisphere. It runs mainly over open water. In terms of the lands of North America, it just passes through the Caribbean island-nation of the Bahamas, and the country of Mexico. It doesn't pass through any land area belonging to the United States. But it does pass through United States waters. For it runs through the Florida Straits between Florida and Cuba, and between Necker and Nihoa islands of the northwestern Hawaiian archipelago.

Answer 3

None. As the Northern Tropic, the Tropic of Cancer is found in the Northern Hemisphere. The continent of South America is found in the Southern Hemisphere. So the Tropic touches no South American country. But it does run through the Latin American country of Mexico, which is found on the North American continent.

Answer 4

The Tropic of Cancer does not pass through any South American countries. It runs through Mexico, The Bahamas, Western Sahara, Mauritania, Mali, Algeria, Libya, Niger, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, UAE, Oman, India, Bangladesh, Myanmar, and China.

Answer 5

The Tropic of Cancer does not pass through South America; it is in the Northern Hemisphere. In the Americas, it passes through Mexico.
