Answer 2

Answer:

When the hour hand of the clock shows 8.00 AM in the morning and the 2.00 PM in the afternoon, the hand of the clock shows degrees:

 Number of hours from 8am till 2pm= 6

The rotation of an hour hand in one hour= 30°

Total degree of rotation= 360°

Therefore, the Angle traced by the hour hand in 6 hours is= (360/12)x6 = 180°
