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 General Uriburu
The DMS coordinates are: 34°5'53.3'' S 59°1'42.9'' W.
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = -34.09814°
LngO = -59.02858°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = 34.09814°
Since the latitude is negative (south direction), the antipode must be positive (north direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = -59.02858 + 180° = 120.97142°
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 General Uriburu is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (34.09814, 120.97142)
In DMS format: 34°5'53.3'' S 59°1'42.9'' W.
