8) The angle between the minute hand and the hour hand of a clock when the time is 8.30, is
a. 65
b. 75
c. 85
d. 90
|
Answer
Explanation
|
ANSWER: 75
Explanation:
At 8 o’ clock, the hour hand is at 240 degrees from the vertical.
In 30 minutes,
Hour hand = 240 + 30 x (0.5) = 240 + 15 = 255 (The hour hand moves at 0.5 dpm)
Minute hand = 30 x (6) = 180 (The minute hand moves at 6 dpm)
Difference or angle between the hands = 255 - 180 = 75 degrees.
