Question: The reflex angle between the hands of a clock at 10.25 is:
[A].180°
195°
[A].
[B].
| 192 | 1 | ° |
| 2 |
[C].
[D].
| 197 | 1 | ° |
| 2 |
Answer: Option D
Explanation:
| Angle traced by hour hand in | 125 | hrs = | 360 | x | 125 | ° | = 312 | 1 | ° | . | ||
| 12 | 12 | 12 | 2 |
| Angle traced by minute hand in 25 min = | 360 | x 25 | ° | = 150°. | ||
| 60 |
| Reflex angle = 360° – | 312 | 1 | – 150 | ° | = 360° – 162 | 1 | ° | = 197 | 1° | . | ||
| 2 | 2 | 2 |
