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 Champlin
The DMS coordinates are: 45°11'19.9'' N 93°23'50.8'' W.
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 45.18885°
LngO = -93.39745°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -45.18885°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = -93.39745 + 180° = 86.60255°
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 Champlin is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-45.18885, 86.60255)
In DMS format: 45°11'19.9'' N 93°23'50.8'' W.
