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 Dale
The DMS coordinates are: 40°1'0.2'' N 86°24'0'' W.
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 40.01671°
LngO = -86.4°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -40.01671°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = -86.4 + 180° = 93.6°
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 Dale is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-40.01671, 93.6)
In DMS format: 40°1'0.2'' N 86°24'0'' W.
