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 Umm Slal Mohammed
The DMS coordinates are: 25°24'54.9'' N 51°24'23.3'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 25.41524°
LngO = 51.40647°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -25.41524°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 51.40647 - 180° = -128.59353°
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 Umm Slal Mohammed is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-25.41524, -128.59353)
In DMS format: 25°24'54.9'' N 51°24'23.3'' E .
