Answer:
40°
Step-by-step explanation:
There are total 60 ticks in the clock. So each tick amount to 360/60 = 6° of angle.
At 20 minutes past 5, min hand is 4 exactly.
At 20 minutes past 5, Hour hand will be at 5 + 5/3 tick.Since hour hand moves 1/3 between 5 to 6 in 20 mins.
Angle between 4 and 5 is 5 x 6 = 30°
Angle between 5 and 5/3 tick is 5/3 * 6 = 10°
So the total angle is 30 + 10 = 40°
