The reflex angle between the hands of a clock at 10.25 is:
Answer: Option
Explanation:
| Angle traced by hour hand in | 125 | hrs = |  |
360 | x | 125 |  |
° | = 312 | 1 | ° | . |
| 12 | 12 | 12 | 2 |
| Angle traced by minute hand in 25 min = | |
360 | x 25 | |
° | = 150°. |
| 60 |
 Reflex angle = 360° - |
|
312 | 1 | - 150 | |
° | = 360° - 162 | 1 | ° | = 197 | 1° | . |

General formulae is (30h-11/2m).
But for reflection angle 360-(30h-11/2m).

A Reflex Angle is one which is more than 180° but less than 360°.

Solution:
12 hrs=360 degree.
means 10.25 hrs = 625 mins.
Total angle covered by 10.25 hrs = (625/720)*360 = 312(1/2) degree //Angle from 12 to 10:25.
Now angle for min hand 25 mins = (25/60)*360= 150 degree.
Reflex angle = 150+ remaining angle between 10:25 and 12.
= 150+(360-312(1/2)).
= 150+47.5.
= 197.5 degree.
Thank You.

= 197.5 degree.
Thank You.

1 min = 0.5 deg, 1hrs =30 deg. becz. 12h = 720 min, clock 12h = 360 deg.
Reflect angle mean measure angel more than 180 deg side.
So on clock 10.25 hrs mean the clock needle lies between 10-5.
So from 5 to 10 measure angle hours is 7 hr(Becz reflex angle method)=7X30 deg=210 deg.
25 min = 25X0.5 deg =12 1/2 deg.
Reflex angle method
Subtract hours by minutes (10hrs-25min) =210-12.5 = 197.5

The correct method is;
1 hour = 30 degree,
1 min = 5.5 degree.
At 10 o'clock angle between them = 30*10=300
For 25min displacement between them = 25*5.5 = 137.5
So, angle between them = 300-137.5 = 162.5, for reflex angle = 360 (total angle is 360 degree) -162.5 (so, angle between them)= 197.5.
1 hour = 30 degree,
1 min = 5.5 degree.
At 10 o'clock angle between them = 30*10=300
For 25min displacement between them = 25*5.5 = 137.5
So, angle between them = 300-137.5 = 162.5, for reflex angle = 360 (total angle is 360 degree) -162.5 (so, angle between them)= 197.5.

Guys, 10:25 us equal to 10 hours and 25 minutes.
When you convert 10 hours to minutes, it is 600 minutes,
So 600+25/60.
Then simplify the fraction by dividing to their GCF, which is 5.
So, (625/60) / 5 = 125/12.
