I'm trying to use the example of the reverse geocode but having my data: placelocator and tiledMapServiceLayer in UTM-WGS84, the method "esri.geometry.geographicToWebMercator" in this case is not useful, the problem is that I do not know how to replace it . Can anyone help me?

code snippet:

function init() {
        var map = new esri.Map("map", { extent: esri.geometry.geographicToWebMercator(new esri.geometry.Extent(-95.2991, 38.9379, -95.2476, 38.963, new esri.SpatialReference({wkid:4326}))) });
...
dojo.connect(map, "onClick", function(evt) {
          map.graphics.clear();
          locator.locationToAddress(esri.geometry.webMercatorToGeographic(evt.mapPoint), 100);
        });

thanks in advance

you can use a geometry service and project the point

 dojo.connect(map, "onClick", function(evt) {
          map.graphics.clear();

        gsvc = new esri.tasks.GeometryService("http://tasks.arcgisonline.com/ArcGIS/rest/services/Geometry/GeometryServer");

         var outSR = new esri.SpatialReference({wkid:4326});
       
         gsvc.project( [evt.mapPoint], ourSR, function(projectedPoints) {
          pt = projectedPoints[0];

          locator.locationToAddress(pt, 100);
           });
        });


or something similar...
