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 Oro-ri
The DMS coordinates are: 40°1'6'' N 127°27'17'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 40.01833°
LngO = 127.45472°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -40.01833°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 127.45472 - 180° = -52.54528°
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 Oro-ri is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-40.01833, -52.54528)
In DMS format: 40°1'6'' N 127°27'17'' E .
