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 Sinfra
The DMS coordinates are: 6°37'15.7'' N 5°54'41.2'' W.
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 6.62103°
LngO = -5.91144°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -6.62103°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = -5.91144 + 180° = 174.08856°
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 Sinfra is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-6.62103, 174.08856)
In DMS format: 6°37'15.7'' N 5°54'41.2'' W.
