Question

what is the angle between the minute and hour hands on a clock at 5:00?

thanks in advance!

Answer 1

There are twelve marks on a clock.

There are 360 degrees on a clock face.

How many degrees between marks? Multiply that by 5..............

..

Answer 2

simple way to look at it is, there is 90 degrees in each 1/4 of the clock. 12 being north, 3 being east, 6 is south, 9 is west.
12 is 0 degrees 1=30 2=60 3=90 4=120 5=150 6=180, and you just add 30 degrees for each hour till you get to 360 which is "0" simple,huh?

Answer 3

First find the angle in degrees and then convert into radians by using the relationship pi radians = 180 degrees. I hope you know how to convert the figures into angles. An example: 3:00 hours is an angle of 90 degrees and will be pi/2 radians. 0:00 will be zero degrees and so zero radians. 2:00 will be 60 degrees and will be approximately 1 radian ( slightly more). pi / 3 radians to be exact.

Answer 4

it's 150 degrees. since 6 o clock would be 180 because it's a straight line,and 3 would be 90, it's easyto say that between the numbers 5 and 6 is 30 degrees. so 180 - 30 = 150 degrees!

Answer 5

150 = 360/12*5

Answer 6

There are 12 divisions on a clock, so each one is 360deg/12. You're asking about 5 divisions so that's

5*360deg/12 = 150deg

Answer 7

150 deg
360*5/12

Answer 8

Obtuse

(ie not acute)
