Angle between the hands of a clock at 7 30


Analog clock is considered as circle.
The total angle formed by a circle is 3600
Now we need to find out the angle between the hour and minute hand.
Now we need to calculate the angle of hour  and minute hand by  considering the reference position as number 12.
Angle of  minute and hour hand is calculated from number 12 in clock.
Angle formed by a circular clock
3600
Angle of minute and hour hand calculated from
Number 12
Time taken by minute  hand for  one revolution
3600=60min                           
Angle formed by minute hand in I min
1min =60
Time taken by hour hand in one revolution
3600= 12 hours
Angle formed by hour hand in 1 hour
300= 1 hour
                          Angle between hour and minute hand at 7 30
Convert 7Hr 30Min into hours
=7+(30/60)
=7+(1/2)
=(14+1)/2
=15/2 Hrs
Angle formed by hour hand 15/2  Hrs
=(15/2)x300
 =7.5x30
=2250
Angle formed by minute hand in 30 min
=30x6
=1800
Difference in angle between minute and hour hand
2250-1800

=450

Angle between hour and minute hand at 7 30 is 450

Average of first n even numbers

Even numbers are 2,4,6,8,10,…. Average = sum of elements/ no of elments Now we will see the sum of elements: Sum of first 2 even numbers: 2+4= 6= 2(2+1) Sum of first 3 even numbers: 2+4+6= 12= 3(3+1) Sum of first 4 even  numbers: 2+4+6+8=20= 4(4+1) Sum of first 5 even numbers: 2+4+6+8+10 = 30 = 5(5+1) Sum of first n even numbers: 2+4+6+8+10+. . . . .  n numbers= n(n+1) Now we will see average: Average of first 2 even numbers= (2+4)/2                                                           = 6/2                              ...
