Question

5. At 5 o'clock the hands of a clock make an obtuse angle and a reflex angle. Find the measure of
each of these angles.​

Answer 1

Answer:

At 5:00, the minute hand would have effectively travelled for 0 minutes covering (0 * 6 = 0°) from reference point.

The Hour hand would have travelled for 5 x 60 = 300 minutes. It covers an angle of 300 x 0.5 = 150°

The angle between the two hands nowis 150°-0° = 150°
