Question

If the hour hand of a clock is turned anticlockwise from 2pm to 9am, through how many degrees will it have turned?

Answer 1

If the hour hand turned anticlockwise from 2 pm to 9 am

( Full rotation is equal to 360°. So, 1 hr= 360/12= 30°)

Anticlockwise 2 pm to 9 am, it's 5 times turned

5×30°=150°

So, the degree from. 2pm to 9 am is 150°.

Answer 2

Answer:

150°

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The hour hand of a clock is turned anticlockwise from 2pm to 9am,

To Find : how many degrees will it have turned?

Solution:

Number of hours between 2 pm to 9 am anticlockwise = 5 hours

Hour hand complete 360° in 12 hour.

It completes in 1 hour = $\frac{360}{12}=30^{\circ}$

So, It completes in 5 hour = $5 \times30^{\circ}$

                                           = $150^{\circ}$

Hence it have turned 150° anticlockwise from 2pm to 9am
