What is the angle of the hour and minute hands at 6 o’clock 3 o’clock 1 o’clock 5 o’clock?
The whole dial of the watch is a circle, the whole circle is 360 degrees. When the Clock shows 6, 3, 1 and 5 o’clock, the minute hand is at twelve o’clock anyway.
Thus, when the Clock shows the time at 6 o’clock, the angle is 180 degrees (the dial is divided into two equal halves, to find the distance between the hands, you need to divide 360 degrees by 2)
When the time is 3 o’clock, the angle is 90 degrees, since the minute hand divides the dial into two segments, we are interested in a smaller segment, which is 1/4 of the dial, so it is equal to 360 degrees made by 4
The remaining two examples are solved in a similar way:
when the time is 1 hour, the angle between the minute and hour hands is 1/12 of the dial, that is, 30 degrees
when the time is 5 o’clock, the angle between the minute and hour hands is 5/12, that is, 150 degrees
