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".

If a clock sHow is 3 hours 45 minutes what is the acute angle between the hands in the clock?
At 3 hours 45 minutes there is not an acute angle between the hands of the clock (unless you extend the hands backwards).
How angle described by minute hand in 60 minute?
In 60 minutes, the minute hand completely circumnavigates the face of the clock,and returns to where it was 60 minutes earlier. That's a travel of 360 degrees.
What is the angle at which the minute hand of a clock rotates over a period of twelve minutes?
12 minutes is 1/5th of an hour. The minute hand sweeps 360 degrees - a full circle - in one hour. So the angle formed by the start and stop of a 12-minute sweep of the minute hand would be 1/5th of 360 degrees or 72 degrees.
Classify the angle between the hand of a clock at 6pm?
There is no angle "between" one hand of a clock.
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.

How many times in a day is the angle between the minute and hour hands of a clock equal to an angle?
360 times
How do you find the angle between the two hands of clock?
Each minute is six degrees.
What is angle at 910?
On the clock each minute represents 6 degrees and so 10 minutes is 60 degrees and 25 minutes is 150 degrees
What is the angle when the time is quarter to 9?
The angle between the minute- and hour-handson an 'analog' clock at 8:45 is 7.5 degrees.
What is the angle between the two hands of a clock when the time is 2 hours and 30 minutes?
The angle - is 120 degrees !
What is the angle between two hands of a clock when the time is 12 hours and 15 minutes?
Right Angle or 900
What is a 190 degree angle?
190 degrees is bit more than a straight angle. If you look at a clock face with the minute hand at 312/3 minutes, then going from 12 o'clock to the minute hand makes an angle of 190 degrees.
Through what angle does the minute hand of a clock turn in 12 minute of time?
60 minutes = 1 rotation = 360 degrees So 12 minutes = 360*12/60 = 72 degrees.
What is the angle between the two hands of a clock when the time is 9hour's 20 minutes?
180o
