45 degrees South and 90 degrees West is the respective latitude and longitude.

Explanation:

The inclination towards the Equator value is 0 degrees. South pole will be 90 degrees to the equator. So, halfway between the equator and the South pole will be 90/2 = 45 degrees South.

The angle around the Earth will be 360 degrees. One-quarter of the way around the Earth will be 360/4 = 90 degrees, as it is to the West of the Prime Meridian, the longitude will be 90 degrees West of the Prime Meridian.
