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 Kratié
The DMS coordinates are: 12°29'17.2'' N 106°1'7.6'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 12.48811°
LngO = 106.01879°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -12.48811°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 106.01879 - 180° = -73.98121°
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 Kratié is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-12.48811, -73.98121)
In DMS format: 12°29'17.2'' N 106°1'7.6'' E .
