What is the angle between the minute hand and the hour hand of a clock if they show time 05:10?
Answers
Answer:
95 degree
Step-by-step explanation:
Every hour the minute hand move 360 DEGREE [one rotation ]
so Every minute the minute hand move 360/60 = 6 degree
Every hour the hour hand make 30 DEGREE
so every 10 minute the hour hand make 5 DEGREE
at 5 :00 minute hand at 12 that is 0 degree
hour hand at 5 that is 150 degree
the angle between the minute hand and the hour hand is 150
at 5 :10 minute hand at 2 that is 60 degree
hour hand between 5 and 6 that is 155 degree
the angle between the minute hand and the hour hand 155-60 =95 degree
360/12 = 30° per major division (hours).
360/60 = 6° per minor division (minutes).
At 05:10, the minute hand is at the 2-hour position, 60° clockwise from 12.
The hour hand moves 155° in 12 hours.
Hour hand is between 5 & 6 that is 155°.
The angle between the minute hand and the hour hand:
155° - 60° = 95°
