Question

When the clock shows time $5:20$, the angle formed between the two hands is

• A. obtuse
• B. right
• C. acute
• D. none of these

Answer 1

The correct option is C acute

Angles
between $0^o$ and ${90}^o$ are acute angles.
Since at the time $5:20$, the hands of the clock form an angle less than ${90}^o$, the angle formed between the two hands is an acute angle.
