Sun Elevation Quiz Puzzle


Out walking the dog recently one of our colleagues was struck by how low in the sky the Sun was? It was almost midday and approximately halfway between the Winter Solstice and the Vernal Equinox, and the Sun seemed very low.

So he set about working out the Sun's elevation at the Solstices and Equinoxes at various Latitudes.

Can you produce equations for these three times of the year based on Latitude?
