Ans- The declination formula of a circumpolar star for the northern hemisphere is,
declination+latitude= +90 degrees
The declination formula of a circumpolar star for the southern hemisphere is,
declination+latitude= -90 degrees
a) Latitude of seattle 47.6062° N
declination+latitude= +90 degrees, declination= 90-47.6062°= 42.3938
b) Latitude of la serena chile 29.9027° S
declination+latitude= -90 degrees, declination= -90-29.9027°= -119.9027°
c) Latitude of 43.5321° S
declination+latitude= -90 degrees, declination= -90-43.5321°= -33.5321°
