Identify the cities at these locations: a) \( 25^{\circ} 58^{\prime} \mathrm{S}, 32^{\circ} 35^{\prime} \mathrm{E} \) b) \( 15^{\circ} 26^{\prime} \mathrm{S}, 28^{\circ} 20^{\prime} \mathrm{E} \) c) \( 8^{\circ} 50^{\prime} \mathrm{S}, 13^{\circ} .15^{\prime} \mathrm{F} \)

The Tropic of Capricorn passes through several countries in southern Africa, including Namibia and South Africa. It’s fascinating to note that this line marks the southernmost point where the sun can be directly overhead, which occurs during the December solstice. This geographical feature significantly influences the climate and ecosystems of the regions it traverses! Regarding the cities at the specified coordinates: a) The coordinates \( 25^{\circ} 58^{\prime} \mathrm{S}, 32^{\circ} 35^{\prime} \mathrm{E} \) lead to the city of Nelspruit in South Africa, known for its lush subtropical landscape. b) The coordinates \( 15^{\circ} 26^{\prime} \mathrm{S}, 28^{\circ} 20^{\prime} \mathrm{E} \) point to the city of Lusaka, the capital of Zambia, a bustling hub with a rich cultural scene. c) The coordinates \( 8^{\circ} 50^{\prime} \mathrm{S}, 13^{\circ} 15^{\prime} \mathrm{E} \) correspond to Luanda, the vibrant capital of Angola, famous for its stunning beaches and dynamic economy!
