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 Matilda Estate
The DMS coordinates are: 1°23'58'' N 103°54'10'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 1.39944°
LngO = 103.90278°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -1.39944°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 103.90278 - 180° = -76.09722°
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 Matilda Estate is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-1.39944, -76.09722)
In DMS format: 1°23'58'' N 103°54'10'' E .
