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 Biny Selo
The DMS coordinates are: 40°27'2.7'' N 50°5'12.7'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 40.45076°
LngO = 50.08686°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -40.45076°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 50.08686 - 180° = -129.91314°
Since the longitude is positive, we subtract 180° to ensure the final value lies between (-180, 180). If it were the other way around, we would sum 180° for the same reason.
Result:
The antipode of Biny Selo is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-40.45076, -129.91314)
In DMS format: 40°27'2.7'' N 50°5'12.7'' E .
