    What is the angle between the minute hand and the hour

    hand at 3:24hrs when taken in anticlockwise direction from the minute hand?
    A 22┬░ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B 32┬░ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C 40┬░ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D 42┬░ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    The logic followed here is as follows, Hour hand makes an angle of 30┬░ in one hour and an angle of 0.5┬░ in one minute. Similarly, minute hand makes an angle of 6┬░ in one minute. So, angle made by hour hand at 3:24hrs = (3 X 30 + 0.5 X 24) = 90 + 12 = 102┬░ Similarly, the angle made by minute hand at 3:24hrs = 24 X 6 = 144┬░ So, the angle between the hour and minute hand at 3:24hrs = 144┬░ - 102┬░ = 42┬░
