At 3:40, the hour hand and the minute hand of a clock form an angle of:
120°
125°
130°
135°
Answer: Option
Explanation:

Angle traced by hour hand in 12 hrs. = 360°.

Angle traced by it in 11 hrs = 360 x 11 ° = 110°.
3 12 3

Angle traced by minute hand in 60 min. = 360°.

Angle traced by it in 40 min. = 360 x 40 ° = 240°.
60

Required angle (240 - 110)° = 130°.
