How many times will the minute band and the hour hand of a clock make a right angle from tipm to 5p.m?
Answers
Answer:
At 2:x the angle between the hour and the minute had is 90 deg.
Or -2*30 + 5.5x = 90, or
5.5x = 90+60 = 150, or
x = 150/5.5 = 27.27. Or at 2:27:16.36 is the angle 90 deg.
30*30–5.5x = 90, or
5.5x = 90–90 = 0. Or at 3:00:00 is the angle 90 deg.
Or -3*30 + 5.5x = 90, or
5.5x = 90+90 = 180, or
x = 180/5.5 = 32.72. Or at 3:32:43.63 is the angle 90 deg.
Or -4*30 + 5.5x = 90, or
5.5x = 90+120 = 210, or
x = 210/5.5 = 38.18. Or at 4:38:10.91 is the angle 90 deg.
So at 2:27:16.36, 3:00:00, 3:32:43.63 and 4:38:10.91 is the angle 90 deg.
