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 Hyderabad
The DMS coordinates are: 25°23'48.8'' N 68°22'37.8'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 25.39689°
LngO = 68.37718°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -25.39689°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 68.37718 - 180° = -111.62282°
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 Hyderabad is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-25.39689, -111.62282)
In DMS format: 25°23'48.8'' N 68°22'37.8'' E .
