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 San Vicente de Cañete
The DMS coordinates are: 13°4'32'' S 76°23'7'' W.
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = -13.07556°
LngO = -76.38528°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = 13.07556°
Since the latitude is negative (south direction), the antipode must be positive (north direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = -76.38528 + 180° = 103.61472°
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 San Vicente de Cañete is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (13.07556, 103.61472)
In DMS format: 13°4'32'' S 76°23'7'' W.
