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 Indi
The DMS coordinates are: 17°10'38.5'' N 75°57'9.4'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 17.17735°
LngO = 75.9526°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -17.17735°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 75.9526 - 180° = -104.0474°
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 Indi is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-17.17735, -104.0474)
In DMS format: 17°10'38.5'' N 75°57'9.4'' E .
