Question

Find the approximate angle between the minute hand and the hour hand of a 12-hour clock when the time is 9:25.

A.

150°\degree​​

B.

190°\degree​​

C.

100°\degree​​

D.

130°\degree​​

Correct option is D

Given: The time is 9:25.
Logic: Angle between the minute hand and the hour hand = (30 ×\times H) - (112\frac{11}{2} ×\times M)​
where H represents hour and M represents minutes.
Explanation:
The angle between the minute hand and the hour hand = (30 ×\times 9) - (112 ×\frac{11}{2} \ \times 25)
= 270 - 137.5 = 132.5°\degree
Thus, the approximate angle between the minute and the hour hand when the time is 9:25 is 132.5°\degree.
So, the correct answer is (d).
