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 Netrakona
The DMS coordinates are: 24°53'0.7'' N 90°43'44.3'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 24.88352°
LngO = 90.72898°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -24.88352°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 90.72898 - 180° = -89.27102°
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 Netrakona is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-24.88352, -89.27102)
In DMS format: 24°53'0.7'' N 90°43'44.3'' E .
