    Solution

    Formula to find the angle between hour hand and minute hand is:

    Angle= | [11 X minutes - 60 X hours] / 2 |

    Here, minutes = 19, Hours = 11

    Angle= | [11 X 19 - 60 X 11] / 2 |

    Angle= | [209 - 660] / 2 | = | -451 / 2 | = 225.5°

    Angle formed between the hour hand and minute hand of a clock at 11hrs 19mins is 225.5°.
