Dylan Murphy · Answer 1

The angular alignment is 90 degrees

Explanation:

The neap tide is a type of tide which occurs around seven days after a spring tide. This type of tide happens twice every month.

The tide is usually moderate and it exists when the sun and moon are usually at right angles to each other when it occurs. A right angle is also known as 90 degrees which validates the tide occurring at an angle 90.
