Step-by-step explanation:

The Tropic of Cancer is the circle marking the latitude 23.5 degrees north, where the sun is directly overhead at noon on June 21, the beginning of summer in the northern hemisphere. The Tropic of Cancer divides India into two halves. The northern half lies in the temperate zone and experiences cool winters.
