The angle between the minute hand and the hour hand of a clock when the time is 8.30, is:
Answer: Option
Explanation:
| Angle traced by hour hand in | 17 | hrs = |  |
360 | x | 17 |  |
° | = 255°. |
| 2 | 12 | 2 |
| Angle traced by min. hand in 30 min. = | |
360 | x 30 | |
° | = 180°. |
| 60 |
Required angle = (255 - 180)° = 75°.

we can do by formula also-
30 (H)-11/2(M)
= 30(8)-11/2(30),
= 240-165,
= 75.
30 (H)-11/2(M)
= 30(8)-11/2(30),
= 240-165,
= 75.

30*Hours-5.5*Minutes.
=30 * 8-5.5*30,
=240-165,
=75°.
=30 * 8-5.5*30,
=240-165,
=75°.

θ =| 11/2 M - 30H | where M = 30 and H =8.
θ = | 11/2 * 30 - 30*8 |,
θ = | 165 - 240 |,
θ = | -75|,
θ = 75°.
θ = | 11/2 * 30 - 30*8 |,
θ = | 165 - 240 |,
θ = | -75|,
θ = 75°.

To find the angle between the times 1.05,2.10,3.15,4.20,5.25, 6.30,7.35,8.40,9.45,10.50,11.55 and 12.60 only takes the half of the minutes.
For 1.05=2.50, 2.10=5 and so on.
For 1.05=2.50, 2.10=5 and so on.

Simple way to find out the degrees is 8:30
Step1: Multiply hour and min= 8 * 30 = 240.
Step:2: Now multiply 30*11/2 = 165.
Step3: Subtract 240 -165= 75° ->answer.

How is it possible as 1min = 6 degree?
=> 10 mins= 60 degree.
So, solution is wrong.
=> 10 mins= 60 degree.
So, solution is wrong.
