      Question

      What is the angle between the minute hand and the hour

      hand at 11:20hrs when taken in clockwise direction from the minute hand?
      A 230⁰ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      B 220⁰ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      C 175⁰ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
      D 190⁰ Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

      Solution

      The logic followed here is as follows, Hour hand makes an angle of 30⁰ in one hour and an angle of 0.5⁰ in one minute. Similarly, minute hand makes an angle of 6⁰ in one minute. So, angle made by hour hand at 11:20hrs = (11 X 30 + 0.5 X 20) = 330 + 10 = 340⁰ Similarly, the angle made by minute hand at 11:20hrs = 20 X 6 = 120⁰ So, the angle between the hour and minute hand at 11:20hrs = 340⁰ - 120⁰ = 220⁰.
