The antipode can be calculated by understanding the geographic coordinates and applying simple formulas. We will use the following variables:
Step 1: Obtain the geographic coordinates of 6 de Septiembre
The DMS coordinates are: 34°39'3.2'' S 58°37'10.4'' W.
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = -34.6509°
LngO = -58.61956°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = 34.6509°
Since the latitude is negative (south direction), the antipode must be positive (north direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = -58.61956 + 180° = 121.38044°
Since the longitude is negative, we sum 180° to ensure the final value lies between (-180, 180). If it were the other way around, we would subtract 180° for the same reason.
Result:
The antipode of 6 de Septiembre is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (34.6509, 121.38044)
In DMS format: 34°39'3.2'' S 58°37'10.4'' W.
