For a 1 hour the angle is 360/12=30.

The distance between 8 and 2 is 6.

So for 6 hours the angle will be as 6*30=180.

Please help me with this. To strike 8 o'clock a clock took 8 seconds. What time will that clock take to strike 12 noon?

Hi, @Gowtham.S.

In 60 minutes, the minute hand gains 55 minutes on the hour on the hour hand. What does it mean?

In 8-2 clock.

The difference between clock 8-2 is = 6hours.

So, 6H = 6 * 30 = 180.
Here 1 H = 30 degrees.

Hi, I have a question please if the shorthand of a clock is at 2pm what is the time after twenty rotation?

1hrs = 30degree.

8am to 2pm there is between 6hrs gap.
so, 1hrs = 30degree
6hrs = 6 * 30 = 180degree.

Here is a simple answer to go.

Hour hand makes a st.Line between 8 to 2.

So, clearly 180 degrees.

Hi, I have a question please.

How many times are the two hands of a clock 72° apart in a day?

Vasal said:   1 decade ago
In 12 min min hand takes 6 degree.

So for 6 hrs it takes ?

(6*60*6)/12 = (3600*6)/3 = 180 deg.
