Who among the guys made the correct conclusion?

Analysis of the statements:

Let's analyze the data in the table to evaluate each statement.

• Statement 1 (Sasha): "On June 22, the further north we go, the shorter the daylight hours."
• Arkhangelsk (64° N): 21 hours 30 minutes.
• Yaroslavl (57° N): 18 hours 04 minutes.
• Tambov (52° N): 16 hours 39 minutes.
• Krasnodar (45° N): 15 hours 37 minutes.

As the latitude increases (moving north), the daylight hours increase on June 22nd. Therefore, Sasha's statement is incorrect.

• Statement 2 (Masha): "As we move from west to east, the daylight hours decrease."

The table shows data for cities at different latitudes but does not provide information about their east-west positions relative to each other or how daylight hours change with longitude. This statement cannot be verified from the given data.

• Statement 3 (Petya): "The higher the latitude, the lower the maximum height of the Sun above the horizon."
• Arkhangelsk (64° N): 49°
• Yaroslavl (57° N): 56°
• Tambov (52° N): 61°
• Krasnodar (45° N): 68°

As the latitude increases (moving north), the maximum height of the Sun above the horizon decreases. This statement is correct.

• Statement 4 (Borya): "The closer to the equator, the lower the Sun rises above the horizon."

This statement is the inverse of Petya's and is incorrect. As we move closer to the equator (lower latitude), the Sun rises higher above the horizon. For example, Krasnodar at 45° N has the Sun at 68°, which is higher than Arkhangelsk at 64° N with the Sun at 49°.

Based on the analysis, Petya's statement is the only one that is directly supported by the data provided in the table.
