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 Tulangan Utara
The DMS coordinates are: 7°28'25.3'' S 112°39'1.8'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = -7.4737°
LngO = 112.6505°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = 7.4737°
Since the latitude is negative (south direction), the antipode must be positive (north direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 112.6505 - 180° = -67.3495°
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 Tulangan Utara is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (7.4737, -67.3495)
In DMS format: 7°28'25.3'' S 112°39'1.8'' E .
