Find the angle traced by hour hand of a correct clock between 7 p.m. and 2 a.m.?
Answer & explanation
Correct answer: option 2
The correct answer is Option (2) → 210°
The hour hand goes once round the dial (360°) in 12 hours, so it turns 30° every hour, whatever the time of day.
From 7 p.m. to 2 a.m.: 5 hours to midnight and 2 hours after it, 7 hours in all
Angle traced \(=7\times30^\circ=210^\circ\)
