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 Orahovac
The DMS coordinates are: 42°23'58'' N 20°39'17'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 42.39944°
LngO = 20.65472°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -42.39944°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 20.65472 - 180° = -159.34528°
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 Orahovac is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-42.39944, -159.34528)
In DMS format: 42°23'58'' N 20°39'17'' E .
