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 Isale
The DMS coordinates are: 3°20'56'' S 29°29'2'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = -3.3489°
LngO = 29.4839°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = 3.3489°
Since the latitude is negative (south direction), the antipode must be positive (north direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 29.4839 - 180° = -150.5161°
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 Isale is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (3.3489, -150.5161)
In DMS format: 3°20'56'' S 29°29'2'' E .
