    What angle will the hour hand and minute hand make at 2:30 am?

    A)  \[115{}^\circ \]           

    B)  \[98{}^\circ \]

    C)  \[110{}^\circ \]           

    D)  \[105{}^\circ \]

    Correct Answer: D

    Solution :

     Formula: \[\mathbf{~}\theta \mathbf{= }\left( \mathbf{M - 5H} \right)\mathbf{ \times  6 -}\frac{\mathbf{M}}{\mathbf{2}}\] M = Minute, H = Hour, T = Time T = 2:30, H = 2, M = 30 \[=\left( 30-\text{ }5\times 2 \right)\times 6-\frac{30}{2}\] \[=\left( 30-10 \right)\times 6-\frac{30}{2}=20\times 6-\frac{30}{2}\] \[=120-\frac{30}{0}~=\text{ }120-15=105{}^\circ \]
