- ANorth Sudan
- BChad
- CMali
- DYemen
Explanation
The Tropic of Cancer (23.5°N) passes through northern Mali in the Sahara. It does not cross Yemen, which lies entirely south of the line (about 12–19°N), nor North Sudan or Chad — the line stays just north of their northern borders (Sudan's northernmost point is about 22°N). Among the given options, therefore, only Mali is crossed by the Tropic of Cancer.
