Correct Answer: 75 Degrees
Explanation:
Angle traced by hour hand in 17/2 hrs = = 255
Angle traced by min hand in 30 min = = 180
Therefore, Required angle = (255 - 180) =
Correct Answer: 4pm
Correct Answer: 67.5 degrees
Correct Answer: 47.5 degrees
Explanation:
At 3 O'clock, Minute hand is at 12 while the Hour hand is at 3. Again the minute hand has to sweep through ( 30 x 5 ) ie 150° for reaching the figure 5 to show 25 mins.
Simultaneously the Hour hand will also rotate for 25 mins. Thus starting from the mark, 3 the hour hand will cover an angle = (25 x 30) / 60 = 12.5°
Hence, Angle between Hour and the Minute hand = ( 60 - 12.5 ) = 47.5°
Correct Answer: (10 + 10/11) min past 2
Correct Answer: 32 8/11
Explanation:
55min spaces are covered in 60min
60 min. spaces are covered in (60/55 x 60) min= 65+5/11 min.
loss in 64min=(65+5/11)- 64 =16/11
Loss in 24 hrs (16/11 x 1/64 x 24 x 60) min= 32 8/11.
Correct Answer: 197 1/2
Correct Answer: 120/11 min past 8
Explanation:
In this type of problems the formulae is
x is replaced by the first interval of given time Here i.e 8
=
min
Therefore the hands will be in the same straight line but not
together at
min.past 8.
Correct Answer: (43 + 7/11) min pats 5
Explanation:
At 5 o'clock, the hands are 25 min. spaces apart.
To be at right angles and that too between 5.30 and 6, the minute hand has to gain (25 + 15) = 40 min. spaces.
55 min. spaces are gained in 60 min
40 min. spaces are gained in min
Correct Answer: 5 5/11
Explanation:
this type of problems the formulae is
(5*x + or -15)*(12/11)
Here x is replaced by the first interval of given time
here i.e 4
Case 1 : (5*x + 15)*(12/11)
(5*4 +15)*(12/11)
(20+15)*(12/11)
35*12/11=420/11=38 2/11 min.
Therefore they are right angles at 38 2/11 min .past4
Case 2 : (5*x-15)*(12/11)
(5*4-15)*(12/11)
(20-15)*(12/11)
5*12/11=60/11 min=5 5/11min
Therefore they are right angles at 5 5/11 min.past4.
