360 | x | 13 | ![]() |
° | = 130°. |
| 3 | 12 | 3 |
| Angle traced by min. hand in 20 min. = | ![]() |
360 | x 20 | ![]() |
° | = 120°. |
| 60 |
Required angle = (130 - 120)° = 10°.

For 4:20.
Basic formula and h and m indicate hours and mint.
(H-m÷5)*30-(m÷2).

We can write 4:20 in fractional form 4(20/60).
Means,
(60 *4 + 20)/60.
Equals,
13/3.
Means,
(60 *4 + 20)/60.
Equals,
13/3.

12 hr = 360°.
1 hr = 30°.
1 min = 1/2°.
20 min = 1*20/2 = 10°.
1 hr = 30°.
1 min = 1/2°.
20 min = 1*20/2 = 10°.

we can convert it in hours as:
20min.=1/3hours
so total hours as 4+1/3=13/3
20min.=1/3hours
so total hours as 4+1/3=13/3

Apply the formula suggested by Reddilavan..
ie: Angle = 30Hr-(11/2)Min
ie: Angle = 30Hr-(11/2)Min

12 hour covers 360 degrees.
Then 360/12 = 30 degrees.
That is one hour.
Then 360/12 = 30 degrees.
That is one hour.

Formula ( 30×Hrs - 11/2min),
= 30 × 4 - 11/2 × 20.
= 120 - 110.
= 10°.
= 30 × 4 - 11/2 × 20.
= 120 - 110.
= 10°.
