Answer 1

Answer:

IT WILL BE 12 TIMES VERTICALLY

Answer 2

Given:

• The hands of the clock is moving from $10$ a.m. to $10$ p.m.

To find:

• The number of  times the hands of a clock will be in vertically opposite direction from $10$ a.m. to $10$ p.m.

Step by step explanation:

• We know that hand of the clock is moving from $10$ a.m. to $10$ p.m.
• So the hands of the clock will be in vertically opposite direction at $10:20$ a.m. for the first time.
• Then at the time of $11:25$ a.m. the hands of the clock will be in vertically opposite direction for the second time.
• At the time of $12:30$ p.m. the hands of the clock will be in vertically opposite direction for the third time.
• At the time of $01:35$ p.m. the hands of the clock will be in vertically opposite direction for the fourth time.
• At the time of $02:40$ p.m. the hands of the clock will be in vertically opposite direction for the fifth time.
• At the time of $03:45$ p.m. the hands of the clock will be in vertically opposite direction for the sixth time.
• At the time of $04:50$ p.m. the hands of the clock will be in vertically opposite direction for the seventh time.
• At the time of $05:55$ p.m. the hands of the clock will be in vertically opposite direction for the eight time.
• At the time of $06:00$ p.m. the hands of the clock will be in vertically opposite direction for the ninth time.
• At the time of $07:05$ p.m. the hands of the clock will be in vertically opposite direction for the tenth time.
• At the time of $08:10$ p.m. the hands of the clock will be in vertically opposite direction for the eleventh time.
• At the time of $09:15$ p.m. the hands of the clock will be in vertically opposite direction for the twelveth time.
• $10:20$ p.m. will not be consider because the hands in the clock moves from $10$ a.m. to $10$ p.m. only.

Final answer:

• Thus, $12$ times the hands of a clock will be in vertically opposite directions from $10$ a.m. to $10$ p.m.
