Shadow map for geometry (c), 35ºN latitude. For geometry (c), point C will not be shaded after the sun rises to within 30º of south, provided it remains south of west in the late afternoon also. The critical altitude angle right before -30º azimuth is 26.57º. At due east, shading will occur below 45º.

Shadow map for geometry (b), 35ºN latitude. For geometry (b), it is noted that during April, for example, point C is shaded in the morning before the sun reaches due east, then is in sunshine for about an hour until the overhang blocks the sun. The sun reappears on point C when it dips below the overhang in the afternoon, but disappears as it moves north of due west and behind the back wall Point C is not shaded during the winter at all
