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 Concord
The DMS coordinates are: 42°27'37.3'' N 71°20'56.2'' W.
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 42.46037°
LngO = -71.34895°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -42.46037°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = -71.34895 + 180° = 108.65105°
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 Concord is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-42.46037, 108.65105)
In DMS format: 42°27'37.3'' N 71°20'56.2'' W.
