Question 9 (a)

Find the angle measure between the hands of the clock in the given figure:

Answer 1

In the given figure,

Difference between two consecutive number is of ${30}^{\circ }$. The measure of the angle between 2 and 3 is ${30}^{\circ }$.

There are only 3 such ${30}^{\circ }$ angles between 9 and 12.

Hence the angle between the hands given = 3 x ${30}^{\circ }$ = ${90}^{\circ }$ (Right angle)
