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 12 30(00:30)
|
|||
Convert 12Hr 30Min into hours
OR
Convert 00Hr 30 min into hours
|
=0+(30/60)
=0+(1/2)
=1/2
=1/2 Hrs
|
||
Angle formed by hour hand 1/2 Hrs
|
=(1/2)x300
=0.5x30
=150
|
||
Angle formed by minute hand in 30 min
|
=30x6
=1800
|
||
Difference in angle between minute and
hour hand
|
1800-150
|
||
|
=1650
|
||
Angle between hour and minute hand at 12 30 is 1650
|
NOTE: here
if you convert 12 30 into hours you will get 25/2 hours.
Then angle
formed by hour hand in 25/2 hours become 3750
But there is
no 375 degree formation in circle as I told circle make 360 degree only. Then 3750=150
in analog clock. since i assumed 12: 30 Hrs into 00:30 Hrs
