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 Lyasny
The DMS coordinates are: 54°0'25.9'' N 27°41'46.7'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 54.0072°
LngO = 27.6963°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -54.0072°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 27.6963 - 180° = -152.3037°
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 Lyasny is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-54.0072, -152.3037)
In DMS format: 54°0'25.9'' N 27°41'46.7'' E .
