Longitude of the city - 40o4840^o 48'

Accept the change in declination per day as 66'

For 19 days the declination was changed on 196=114=1o5419\cdot 6=114'=1^o 54' from winter solstice.

The height of the sun above the horizon on the day of the winter solstice


90o40o4823o27=25o4590^o - 40^o 48' - 23^o 27'=25^o45'

The noon sun angle at 10 January


25o45+1o54=27o3925^o45'+1^o54'=27^o39'
