Answer 1

Answer:

So the angle made by the hour hand in 2 hours 20 minutes 2 1/3 hours 7/3(360)/12 = 70 degrees. The angle made by the minute hand in 60 minutes = 360 degrees. So the angle made by the minute hand in 20 Minutes = 120 degrees. Hence angle between the hour hand and minute hand at 2:20 = 120 - 70 = 50 degrees.
