  3. Question: At 3.40 the hours hand and the minute hand of a clock form an angle of :

    A
    120°

    B
    125°

    C
    130°

    D
    135°

    Note: Angle traced by hour hand in 12 hrs = 360° Angle traced by it in` 11/3` hrs` = (360/12 xx 11/3)^° = 110^°` Angle traced by minute hand in 60 min.` = 360^°` Angle traced by it in 40 min` = (360/60 xx 40)^° = 240^° :. Required angle` = (240 - 110)^° = 130^°`

  4. Question: The angle between the minute hand and the hour hand of a clock when the time is 4.20, is :

    A
    80^°

    B
    75^°

    C
    60^°

    D
    105^°

    Note: Angle traced by min. hand in `17/2` hrs` = (360/12 xx 17/2)^°` `= 255^°` Angle traced by min. hand in 30 min.`= (360/60 xx 30)^°` `= 180^°` :. Required angle` = (255 - 180)^°` `= 75^°`

  5. Question: The angle between the minute hand and the hour hand of a clock when the time is 4.20, is :

    A
    `0^°`

    B
    `10^°`

    C
    `5^°`

    D
    `20^°`

    Note: Angle traced by hour hand in `13/2` hrs` = (360/12 xx 13/3)^°` `= 130^°` Angle traced by min. hand in 20 min.` = (360/60 xx 20)^°` `= 120^°` :. Required angle` = (130 - 120)^° = 10^°`

  6. Question: How many times do the hands of a clock coincide in a day ?

    A
    24

    B
    20

    C
    21

    D
    22

    Note: The hands of a clock coincide 11 times in every 12 hours (Since between 11 and 1, they coincide only once, i,e at 12 o, clock). :. The hands coincide 22 times in a day.

    D
    48

    Note: In 12 hours the hand coincide or are in opposite direction 22 times. :. In 24 hours the hands coincide or are in opposite direction 44 times a day.

    20

    C
    22

    D
    24

    30 min.past 5

    C
    `22 8/11` min.past 9

    D
    `27 3/11` min.past 5

    Note: At 5 o'clock, the minute hand is 25 min.spaces apart. To be coincident, it must gain 25 min.spaces. 55 min are gained in 60 min 25 min are gained in` (60/55 xx 25)` min `= 27 3/11` min
