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	1°	.
