Imagine you are standing on some point on equator, let us call it P. The geographic meridian and the magnetic meridian passing through P make an angle θ between them. If you walk half the earth on equator, and reach a point Q, then the geographic meridian and the magnetic meridian passing through Q make an angle ϕ between them, then
