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 Guarambaré
The DMS coordinates are: 25°29'27.5'' S 57°27'20.4'' W.
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = -25.49096°
LngO = -57.45567°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = 25.49096°
Since the latitude is negative (south direction), the antipode must be positive (north direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = -57.45567 + 180° = 122.54433°
Since the longitude is negative, we sum 180° to ensure the final value lies between (-180, 180). If it were the other way around, we would subtract 180° for the same reason.
Result:
The antipode of Guarambaré is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (25.49096, 122.54433)
In DMS format: 25°29'27.5'' S 57°27'20.4'' W.
