How to apply theta = 30h-(11/2)m in this question.

Can we apply those in every question?

1hr=30degree.

The gap btw 8to 2is 6hrs.
Then the hour hand move is 6*30=180 degrees.

Total degree in clock = 360,
1 clock have = 30,
8 am to 2 pm = 6 hr.
6 * 30 = 180.

Simple form.

For 12 hours we take 360 degree.

And 8-2 = 6.

So, 360/12*6 = 180.

Yes, both hands in the opposite direction. So 180° is the correct answer.

360°/12 = 30°.

8 to 2 o'clock = 6 hrs.

30° * 6 = 180°.

12hr - 8hr = 4hr.
4hr + 2hr = 6hr.
1Hr = 360° % 60.
So, 30° * 6 = 180°.
