Question 135

What is the angle between the hour hand and the minute hand of an analogue clock when the time is 5:40 p.m.?

Solution

The formula is: $$\ \frac{\ 11}{2}$$ $$\ \times\ $$hour - 30$$\ \times\ $$minutes for the angle.

Keeping hours as 5 and minutes as 40, we get the expression as 220-150, which is 70 degrees.
