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 Novi Pazar
The DMS coordinates are: 43°8'12'' N 20°30'44'' E .
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 43.13667°
LngO = 20.51222°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -43.13667°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = 20.51222 - 180° = -159.48778°
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 Novi Pazar is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-43.13667, -159.48778)
In DMS format: 43°8'12'' N 20°30'44'' E .
