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 Eski shehr
The DMS coordinates are: 39°46'36'' N 30°31'14'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 39.77667°
LngO = 30.52056°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -39.77667°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 30.52056 - 180° = -149.47944°
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 Eski shehr is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-39.77667, -149.47944)
In DMS format: 39°46'36'' N 30°31'14'' E .
