The image above represents same meridian – same sides of the equator. To calculate same meridian – same sides of the equator, two essential parameters and these parameters are value of A and value of B.
The formula for calculating same meridian – same sides of the equator:
θ = B – A
Where;
θ = Angular Difference
A = Value of A
B = Value of B
Let’s solve an example;
Find the angular difference when the value of A is 21 and the value of B is 30.
This implies that;
A = Value of A = 21
B = Value of B = 30
So, θ = B – A
θ = 30° – 21°
θ = 9°
Therefore, the angular difference is 9°.
Calculating the Value of B when the Angular Difference and the Value of A are Given
B = θ + A
Where;
B = Value of B
θ = Angular Difference
A = Value of A
Let’s solve an example;
Find the value of B when the angular difference is 44 and the value of A is 5.

This implies that;
θ = Angular Difference = 44
A = Value of A = 5
Then, B = θ + A
B = 44° + 5°
B = 49°
Therefore, the value of B is 49°.
Calculating the Value of A when the Angular Difference and the Value of B are Given
A = B – θ
Where;
A = Value of A
θ = Angular Difference
B = Value of B
Let’s solve an example;
Find the value of A when the angular difference is 19 and the value of B is 22.
This implies that;
θ = Angular Difference = 19
B = Value of B = 22
That is, A = B – θ
A = 22° – 19°
A = 3°
Therefore, the value of B is 3°.
