3. in the Bahamas

5. in northern Russia
6. in Virginia

Respuesta :

When someone is standing in Northern Russia (option 5) Polaris is going to be at 66 °

Polaris is the name of a star that marks the north celestial pole. The entire northern sky rotates around it.

Polaris is also used as a geographical location point on earth to know at what North latitude a person is located.

  • To know the location, you have to point with one arm towards the northern horizon and with the other arm point to the Polaris star.
  • The angle that forms between your arms will be your latitudinal location in the Northern Hemisphere.

Therefore, if a person is located in Northern Russia (option 5) Polaris will be at 66° 33" because from there the angle of his arms will be 66°.
