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 Wolcottville
The DMS coordinates are: 41°31'33.2'' N 85°21'59.9'' W.
Calculations are easier by using the decimal format, hence:
LatO = 41.52588°
LngO = -85.36665°
Step 2: Calculate the latitude
LatA = - LatO = -41.52588°
Since the latitude is positive (north direction), the antipode must be negative (south direction).
Step 3: Calculate the longitude
LngA = LngO ± 180° = -85.36665 + 180° = 94.63335°
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 Wolcottville is located on coordinates: (LatA, LngA) = (-41.52588, 94.63335)
In DMS format: 41°31'33.2'' N 85°21'59.9'' W.
