Question

Its 2:15 o'clock angle between hour hand and minute hand is

Answer 1

Answer:

22.5 degrees.

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle between any two numbers on the clock is 30°.

Since it is 2:15,

the minute hand is at the 3

and the hour hand is 1/4th of the way past the 2

Therefore

360/12=30

30*1=30

30/60=0.5

0.5*15=7.5

30–7.5

=22.5 degrees.

Answer 2

GIVEN,

Time is 2:15

TO FIND,

The angle between the hour hand and minute hand

Solution,

We know that the whole angle or the total angle covered by hour hand in 12 hours and the minute hand in 60 mins is 360°.

So the angle cover by the minute hand per min is 6° and angle cover by hour hand per hour is 30° that is .5° per min.

2:15 can be converted into 135 min after 12:00 o clock.

therefore the angle covered by hour hand is $135*0.5=77.5$°

and the angle covered by minute hand is $15*6=90$°

So the angle between hour hand and minute hand is 22.5°

Hence if Its 2:15 o'clock angle between hour hand and minute hand is 22.5°.
