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 South River
The DMS coordinates are: 45°50'0.2'' N 79°22'58.5'' W.
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 45.8334°
LngO = -79.38293°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -45.8334°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = -79.38293 + 180° = 100.61707°
Since the longitude is negative, we sum 180° to ensure the final value lies between (-180, 180). If it were the other way around, we would subtract 180° for the same reason.
Result:
The antipode of South River is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-45.8334, 100.61707)
In DMS format: 45°50'0.2'' N 79°22'58.5'' W.
