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 |
![]() |
![]() |
312 | 1 | - 150 | ![]() |
° | = 360° - 162 | 1 | ° | = 197 | 1° | . |

@All.
At first, we convert 10 hr into min i.e;
1hr=60min.
therefore,10hr=10*60=600min,and again,
10hr25min=600+25min=625min,
now, we convert min into hr again as the answer is in degrees,
therefore, 625/60hr=125/12hr.

First of all, To calculate ANGLE between a minute and second hands, Use Formula-
((60xHour)-(11xMinutes))÷2.
And then to calculate Reflex angle, Use Formula;
360° Actual Angle.
((60xHour)-(11xMinutes))÷2.
And then to calculate Reflex angle, Use Formula;
360° Actual Angle.

@Guru.
Actually for degree calculation |30h-{11(mints)}/2|=======30*10-{(11*25)|/2}.
300-(275)/2.
(600-275)/2.
325/2.
162.1/2.
Then reflected angle = clock angle - actual angle.
360-162.5 = 197.5 this is the correct answer.

Where; Replex angle= clock angle (ie 360)- actual angle.

Given, time= 10:25.
Here, h= 10, m=25.
h= hours. &. m= minutes.
Formula is Angle=[ 30h-(11m/2)].
=[30*10-(11(25)/2].
=[300-(275/2)].
=[(600-275)/2].
Angle =[325/2].
Reflex angle= total angle- actual angle.
= 360-(325/2),
= [720-325]/2,
= 395/2,
= 197*1/2.
In this, we have to use the formula ∠=[30h-(11m/2)].

360- hour * 30-minute * 11/2 = 360-10*30-25*11/2 = 360-162.5 = 197.5.

First, we have to calculate the angle between hour and minute hand.
Time given=10.25.
Angle between two hand=(30*H)-11/2*M.
=(30*10)-11/2*25,
=300-137.5,
=162.5.
Reflex angle = 360-162.5.
=197.5 ie;197 1/2.
Time given=10.25.
Angle between two hand=(30*H)-11/2*M.
=(30*10)-11/2*25,

Reflex angle = 360-162.5.
=197.5 ie;197 1/2.

Simply use formula:
Angle = 30*H - (11*M) / 2 ---> (1).
Reflex Angle= 360 - Angle ---> From (1).
Angle = 30*H - (11*M) / 2 ---> (1).
Reflex Angle= 360 - Angle ---> From (1).
