Solution

The correct option is D Both A and C

The angle of 90° will be formed two times between 6 and 7’o clock. Here, θ=90° and h=6. Hence, the two timings can be found out as follows:

  1. θ=30h(11/2)mà90=30x6(11/2)màm=90x2/11=180/11=18(2/11)
  2. θ=(11/2)m30hà90=(11/2)m30x6àm=270x2/11=540/11=49(1/11)
