Question

Angle between minute hand and hour hand at 2:13 pm

Answer 1

the angle is approx 10 degree

Answer 2

Keep in mind that angle covered by minute hand in 1 minute is 6degree and angle covered by hour hand in 1minute is 1/2 degree.

So, angle covered by minute hand 13minutes = 13 x 6degree = 78degree.

Hence, at 2hours 13minutes X = 133 x 1/2degree = 66degree.

Hence, the angle between the hour and minute hand at 2.13PM = 78degree – 66degree = 12degree.
