Question

find the angle between the minute hand and the hour hand of a clock when the time is 7:20

Answer 1

In 20 minutes (i.e. at 7:20), it makes up 330*20/60 = 110 degrees. Now the minute hand will be 210 – 110 = 100 degrees behind the hour hand. The smaller angle between them now is 100 degrees

Hence, it is a acute as angle.

Answer 2

${\ Answer}$

In 20 minutes (i.e. at 7:20), it makes up 330*20/60 = 110 degrees. Now the minute hand will be 210 – 110 = 100 degrees behind the hour hand. The smaller angle between them now is 100 degrees.
