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 Guadalajara de Buga
The DMS coordinates are: 3°54'3.2'' N 76°17'52.2'' W.
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 3.90089°
LngO = -76.29783°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -3.90089°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = -76.29783 + 180° = 103.70217°
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 Guadalajara de Buga is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-3.90089, 103.70217)
In DMS format: 3°54'3.2'' N 76°17'52.2'' W.
