On the chart, use the data from Figure 11-2 to plot the altitude of the noon Sun on the 22nd day of each month for the equator, 45° N, and 90° N. Connect the values for each latitude with a labeled line (you may also use a red line for the equator, a green line for 45° N, and a blue line for 90° N). Plot negative angles as a solar altitude of 0°.
Using the completed chart, answer the following questions:

(b) Does the noon Sun at the North Pole ever get as high as it is on January 22 at 45° N?
