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 San Pedro
The DMS coordinates are: 14°21'34.2'' N 121°2'50.3'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 14.3595°
LngO = 121.0473°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -14.3595°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 121.0473 - 180° = -58.9527°
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 San Pedro is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-14.3595, -58.9527)
In DMS format: 14°21'34.2'' N 121°2'50.3'' E .
