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 Camargo
The DMS coordinates are: 20°38'26.3'' S 65°12'32.1'' W.
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = -20.64064°
LngO = -65.20893°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = 20.64064°
Since the latitude is negative (south direction), the antipode must be positive (north direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = -65.20893 + 180° = 114.79107°
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 Camargo is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (20.64064, 114.79107)
In DMS format: 20°38'26.3'' S 65°12'32.1'' W.
