The height of the culmination of the star, including the Sun, can be found by the formula Нв.к = 90 + (С – Ф) Here С is the declination of the star (declination of the Sun today, February 23, = -10 degrees). Ф – latitude of the place of observation = 54 ° 04 ¢.
we find that on February 23 the Sun will rise to a height
Nv.k. = 90 -10 – 54 ° 04 ¢ = 25 ° 56 ¢.
