Differentiate between Summer solstice and Winter Solstice.
The day that the Earth's North Pole is tilted closest to the sun is called the summer solstice. It is also the day that the Sun reaches its highest point in the sky. The winter solstice, or the shortest day of the year, happens when the Earth's North Pole is tilted farthest from the Sun.

Answer:
A hemisphere's winter solstice is the shortest day of the year and its summer solstice the year's longest. In the Northern Hemisphere the June solstice marks the start of summer: this is when the North Pole is tilted closest to the Sun, and the Sun's rays are directly overhead at the Tropic of Cancer.
