Type1:
Find the angle between the hour hand and the minute hand
of a clock when the time is 3.25
solution : In this type of problems the formulae is as follows
30*[hrs-(min/5)]+(min/2)
In the above problem the given data is time is 3.25. that is
applied in the
formulae
30*[3-(25/5)]+(25/2)30*(15-25)/5+25/2

Type3:
At what time between 4 and 5 o'clock will the hands of a clock
be at rightangle?
Solution : In this type of problems the formulae is
(5*x + or -15)*(12/11)
Here x is replaced by the first interval of given time
here i.e 4
Case 1 : (5*x + 15)*(12/11)
(5*4 +15)*(12/11)
(20+15)*(12/11)
35*12/11=420/11=38 2/11 min.
Therefore they are right angles at 38 2/11 min .past4
Case 2 : (5*x-15)*(12/11)
(5*4-15)*(12/11)
(20-15)*(12/11)
5*12/11=60/11 min=5 5/11min
Therefore they are right angles at 5 5/11 min.past4.
