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 Tsahir
The DMS coordinates are: 48°4'47'' N 98°51'6'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 48.07972°
LngO = 98.85167°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -48.07972°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 98.85167 - 180° = -81.14833°
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 Tsahir is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-48.07972, -81.14833)
In DMS format: 48°4'47'' N 98°51'6'' E .
