Why is 330 on clock not a right angle?
For 3:30 to be a right angle, the hour hand would point to the 3 and the minute hand would point to the 6. But the hour hand will be halfway between the 3 and the 4, hence not a right angle.Also, at 3:30 the angle of the hour hand would be at 105 degrees, the minute hand at 180, and the angular distance between both would be 75 degrees.
How many times a day does the hands of a clock form a straight angle?
Eight times in a day the hands of a clock form straight angle. At first they form straight angle when the hour amd minute hand are on 3 and 9 in noon and night. Second, when the hour amd minute hand are on 9 and 3 in morning and night. Third when the hour amd minute hand are on 12 and 6 At last when the hour amd minute hand are on 6 and 12.
What type of angle would be formed by a clock's hands when it is 3?
The hands form a right angle. At 3 o'clock, the minute hand points straight up, and the hour hand points straight to the right.
What is the angle between the two needles when the time is quarter past three?
0 degreesEach hour mark is worth 30 degrees. The hour hand will have moved 1/4 of 30 (7.5 degrees) from the 3 o'clock mark. The minute hand is on the 3 o'clock mark. That puts the hour hand 7.5 degrees ahead of the minute hand.
If the hour hand is on the 3 and the minute hand is on the 3 what time is it?
it is 3:15

What is the angle between the minute hand and the hour hand of a clock at half past two?
If we simply imagine the minute hand is on the 6, and the hour hand is on the two, there will be a total of 120 degrees between the minute and the hour hand, 1/3 of the clock is covered between the two hands. However, it is not that simple. Because 30 minutes has travelled, the hour hand will be half way between the 2 and the 3. We know that every hour, the hour hand moves 30 degrees (360 / 12 hours = 30). Therefore, in 30 minutes, it will have travelled 15 degrees. Which means the hour hand is 15 degrees closer to the minute hand. Therefore, the actual angle between the minute and hour hand is actually 105 degrees.
If you look at a clock and the time is 3 hours 15 minutes what is the angle between the hour and the minute hands?
It should be 7.5°. The hour hand continues to move, although at a slower pace than the minute hand. From 3:00 to 3:15, the hour hand will move one-fourth of the distance from the "3" to the "4". In an hour, the hour hand moves one-twelfth of a circle. So in 15 minutes, the minute hand will arrive at the "3" and the hour hand will have moved one-fourth of one-twelfth of 360° - which is 7.5° - past the "3".
What type of angle would be formed by a clock's hands when it is 3?
The hands form a right angle. At 3 o'clock, the minute hand points straight up, and the hour hand points straight to the right.
What angle is formed by the hand of the clock at 420?
10°, on a standard 12-hour clock. The minute hand is pointing at the 4, but the hour hand has advanced by 1/3 of an hour, which is 1/36 of a full circle, or 10°.

If the hour hand is on the 3 and the minute hand is on the 3 what time is it?
it is 3:15
What is the angle when time is 11.20?
At 11:20 the hour hand is pointing to 1/3 of an hour after 11, which is 20 degrees before 12. The minute hand is pointing at 120 degrees after 12. So the angle between the two is 120+20 = 140 degrees.
What is the angle between the minute and hour hands at 3.20?
The minute hand will be 4/12 = 1/3 of 360 degrees clockwise from up, so 120 degrees. The hour hand will be 10/36 = 100 degrees clockwise from up. 120 - 100 = 20 degrees.
What is the reflex angle between clock hands showing 3 o'clock?
90 degrees or (pi)/2 radians, with the hour hand on the right end and the minute hand pointing up.
What time is it when the hour hand is little past the 3 and the minute hand is pointing to the 3?
3:15
