Answered by Sree2018

b/w each 5min intervel =30 degree
angle b/w12:10=60 degree, but hour hand moves 1/2degree in 1minute, Therefore it moves 5degree in 10minutes. Ans=60-5=55

shadowsabers03: Wrong answer.

SidharthaPaul: tell me the correct one and explain

SidharthaPaul: 30 × 2 = 60, okay?

shadowsabers03: If the clock shows time 2:00, then it'll be 60 degree.

Hi !

Good Question.

Here's your answer :-

We know, the whole clock makes 360°.

So for 5 minutes :-

(360÷12)°

= 30°

So for ten minutes :-

30° × 2

= 60°

Therefore, the angle between 12 and 10 is 60°.

Hope you understand

Plz mark as brainliest if I deserve.

SidharthaPaul: is wrong

Sree2018: 55or 60which is correct?

shadowsabers03: The hour hand moves 1/2 degree in 1 minute. On 12:10 (12 hours and 10 minutes), the hour hand moves 10/2 = 5 degree along the minute hand. The minute hand moves 30 x 2 = 60 degree. So the answer is 60 - 5 = 55 degree.
