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 Mile and a Quarter
The DMS coordinates are: 13°15'57.5'' N 59°37'19.5'' W.
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 13.26597°
LngO = -59.62207°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -13.26597°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = -59.62207 + 180° = 120.37793°
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 Mile and a Quarter is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-13.26597, 120.37793)
In DMS format: 13°15'57.5'' N 59°37'19.5'' W.
