angle between the minute hand and the hour hand of a clock when the time is 8.30 is 75 degrees.
at 8:30 hours hand is sharply at the center of 8 and 9. minutes hand is sharply at 6 the angle between 6 and 9 is 90 degree from 6 to 9 dividing for every 0.5 having 15 degrees each so angle is 5*15 =75 degree or 90-15=75degree
75º
Angle traced by hour hand in 17/2 hrs = (360/12 x 17/2)º = 255.
Angle traced by min. hand in 30 min. = (360/60 x 30 )º = 180.
Required angle = (255 - 180)º = 75º.
If we measure the angle between the minute hand and the hour hand in the clockwise direction, Then the answer is: 360 -75 = 285 degrees
Can you find out the angle between the minute hand and the hour hand at 3:15 on an analog clock? Think hard and then come to a conclusion.
Dinesh was curious to know the angle between the hour and minute hands of a clock, so when he see10:10 in a clock he calculates the shorter angle between the hands. Which time will also make the same angle between the hour and minute hand as calculated by Dinesh?
Between 2 and 3 o'clock yesterday, " said the major, "I looked at the clock and mistook the minute hand for the hour hand , and vice versa. "Consequently, the time appeared to be 55 minutes earlier than it actually was. What was the correct time?
