Declination can range from +90 degrees (north) to -90 degrees (south).
No, the declination of a star is its angular distance north or south of the celestial equator, measured in degrees. So, a star located 30 degrees north of the celestial equator would have a declination of +30 degrees.
Perth is at 32 degrees south and on the summer solstice the Sun's declination is 23½ degrees south. Therefore the Sun is 32-23½ degrees or 8½ degrees from the zenith, that is 81½ degrees above the horizon.
The compass bearing of south is 180 degrees

SSE stands for South-South-East in meteorological terms and represents a compass heading of around 157.5 degrees. This means that SSE is halfway between due south (180 degrees) and due east (90 degrees) on the compass.
There are 180 degrees between north and south in a compass rose.
South West.
202.5 as a compass point is South by Southwest It is the center value between South (180 degrees) and Southwest (225 degrees) the center of 45 degrees (22.5) Make sense?
The definition of a true compass bearing - A true bearing is measured in relation to the fixed horizontal reference plane of True North, that is using the direction towards the geographic North Pole as a reference point.
Sydney, Australia is 34 degrees south, 151 degrees east
