Solution

Finding the angle between the hands of the clock
In the given figure, the minute and the hour-hand show $2.00 p . m$ .
Total number of hours in $1$ complete revolution $= 12$
The angle of revolution in $12$ hours $= 360 °$
The angle of revolution in $1$ hour $=$ $\frac{360 °}{12} = 30 °$
The angle of revolution in $2$ hrs $=$ $30 ° \times 2 = 60 °$
Hence, the angle between the hands of the clock in the given figure is $60 °$
