Question

angle between two hand clock at 12 hours 2 hours 3 hours 6 hours . Describe the each angle
​

Answer 1

1. The total angle in a clock is 360

∘

2. The minute hand covers this 360

∘

in 60 minutes. Thus, for every minute it covers 6

∘

3. The hour hand covers this 360

∘

in 12 hours. Thus, in each hour it covers 30

∘

4. The minute had has travelled for 0 minutes. So, it has covered 30×0=0

∘

5. The hour hand has travelled for 8 hours. So, it has covered 8×30=240

∘

6. The difference between the two will give the angle between the two hands. Thus, the required angle=240

∘

−0

∘

=240
