Find the angle between the hour hand and the minute hand of a clock when the time is 4 :10.

A) \[{{65}^{o}}\]

B) \[{{35}^{o}}\]

C) \[{{125}^{o}}\]

D) \[{{60}^{o}}\]

Correct Answer: A

Solution :

[a] At 4:10, the hour hand is ahead of minute hand.

Now, required angle is given by

\[={{\left\{ \left( T-\frac{n}{5} \right)+\frac{n}{2} \right\}}^{o}}\]

Here, \[T=4\], \[n=10\]

\[=30\,\left( 4-\frac{10}{5} \right)+\frac{10}{2}\]

\[=30\,(4-2)+5=60+5=65{}^\circ \]
