An area called the Tropic Zone and the low latitudes zone.
Yes. The South Pole is at 90 degrees S latitude. The North Pole is at 90 degrees N latitude. The Equator is at 0 degrees latitude.
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"
The latitude at the southernmost point in Switzerland, dipping midway between Varese and Como in Italy, is about 45.82° North ... about 60 miles farther north than St. Paul MN is, about 340 miles farther north than New York City, and more than 800 miles farther north than Los Angeles ! The latitude of the Tropic of Cancer is about 23.5° North.
45 N latitude.The 45th Parallel is the midway point between the Equator and the North Pole... but the true halfway point is actually 16.2 kilometers (10.1 miles) north of the 45th parallel because the Earth is oblate.

They are parallel lines running east-west around the earth, about 3,240 miles apart.The equator is exactly midway between them.

It has no specific name.
It's a third line, parallel to both and midway between them.
A plane midway between the two given planes and parallel to them.
The equator (0 degrees latitude), about 23 1/2 degrees north of the Tropic of Capricorn, and 23 1/2 degrees south of the Tropic of Cancer.
It's another line, parallel to both of the first two and midway between them.
