The reflex angle between the hands of a clock at 10.25 is:
180°
192 1 °
2
195°
197 1 °
2
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 .
2 2 2

Hour hand is not exactly at 10:00. It has passed 10:00.

The angle between 180 and 360 degrees is reflex angle.

10 * (25/60 hr) = 10 * (5/12)=(12 * 10+5)/12 = 125/12.

We have formula also angle = |(11/2)*min-(30*hour)|.

I want clear definition of reflex angle and formula.

Pragna said:   10 years ago
Is there any alternate method to solve this problem?
