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 Tokmok
The DMS coordinates are: 42°50'31'' N 75°18'5.4'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 42.84194°
LngO = 75.30149°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -42.84194°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 75.30149 - 180° = -104.69851°
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 Tokmok is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-42.84194, -104.69851)
In DMS format: 42°50'31'' N 75°18'5.4'' E .
