Q:

At 3.40, the hour hand and the minute hand of a clock form an angle of:

A) 110	B) 120
C) 130	D) 140

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 130

Explanation:

Angle traced by hour hand in 12 hrs. = 360º.

Angle traced by it in $\frac{11}{3}$ hrs = ${(\frac{360}{12} \times \frac{11}{3})}^{0}$ = $110^{0}$

Angle traced by minute hand in 60 min. = $360^{0}$

Angle traced by it in 40 min = ${(\frac{360}{60} \times 40)}^{0}$ = $240^{0}$

$\therefore$ Required angle (240 - 110)º = $130^{0}$

Q:

At what angle the hands of a clock are inclined at 15 minutes past 5?

A) 57.5 degrees	B) 67.5 degrees
C) 77.5 degrees	D) 87.5 degrees

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 67.5 degrees

Explanation:

Angle traced by hour hand in $\frac{21}{4}$ 21 hrs = ${(\frac{360}{12} \times \frac{21}{4})}^{0}$ = $157 \frac{1^{0}}{2}$

Angle traced by min. hand in 15 min = ${(\frac{360}{12} \times 15)}^{0}$ = $90^{0}$

$\therefore$ Required Angle = ${(157 \frac{1}{2})}^{0} - 90^{0}$ = $67 \frac{1^{0}}{2}$
