In geography, the antipode (/ ˈ æ n t ɪ ˌ p oʊ d, æ n ˈ t ɪ p ə d i /) of any spot on Earth is the point on Earth's surface diametrically opposite to it. A pair of points antipodal (/ æ n ˈ t ɪ p ə d əl /) to each other are situated such that a straight line connecting the two would pass through Earth's center.
In mathematics, two points of a sphere (or n-sphere, including a circle) are called antipodal or diametrically opposite if they are the endpoints of a diameter, a straight line segment between two points on a sphere and passing through its center.
Antipodes, points on the Earth's surface that are diametrically opposed; Antipodes Islands, inhospitable volcanic islands south of New Zealand; The Antipodes, a principally British term for Australia and New Zealand (or more broadly the area known as Australasia), based on a rough proximity to the antipode of Britain
A polar opposite is the diametrically opposite point of a circle or sphere. It is mathematically known as an antipodal point, or antipode when referring to the Earth. It is also an idiom often used to describe people and ideas that are opposites. Polar Opposite or Polar Opposites may also refer to: Polar Opposite, a 2011 EP by Sick Puppies
Goethe arranged his color wheel symmetrically "for the colours diametrically opposed to each other in this diagram are those which reciprocally evoke each other in the eye. Thus, yellow demands purple; orange, blue; red, green; and vice versa: Thus again all intermediate gradations reciprocally evoke each other."
A function is called odd (aka antipodal or antipode-preserving) if for every : () = ().. The Borsuk–Ulam theorem is equivalent to the following statement: A continuous odd function from an n-sphere into Euclidean n-space has a zero.
Thus "fasten using FN7" refers to a fastener that is "find number" 7 in the list. FoS: feature of size: A type of physical feature on a part. An FoS is a feature that can have size associated with it, usually involving the opposition of two surfaces (e.g., the two diametrically opposite sides of a hole wall; the two opposite walls of a slot or ...
Diametrically opposed points represent a correlation of –1 = cos(π), called anti-correlation. Any two points not in the same hemisphere have negative correlation. An example would be a negative cross-sectional relationship between illness and vaccination, if it is observed that where the incidence of one is higher than average, the incidence ...
