What angle (in degrees) does the minute hand describe in 3 hours 6 minutes? What angle (in degrees) does
What angle (in degrees) does the minute hand describe in 3 hours 6 minutes? What angle (in degrees) does the minute hand describe in 1 hour 50 minutes? What angle (in degrees) does the minute hand describe in 5 hours 42 minutes? What angle (in degrees) does the minute hand describe? hand in 1 hour 22 minutes
For the calculation, it should be taken into account that in 1 hour the hand makes a full revolution equal to 360o.
1) 3 hours 6 minutes:
3 * 360 + (6/60) * 360 = 1080 + 0.1 * 360 = 1080 + 36 = 1116o.
2) 1 hour 50 minutes:
1 * 360 + (50/60) * 360 = 360 + (5/6) * 360 = 360 + 5 * 60 = 360 + 300 = 660o.
3) 5 hours 42 minutes:
5 * 360 + (42/60) * 360 = 1800 + 0.7 * 360 = 1800 + 252 = 2052o.
4) 1 hour 22 minutes:
1 * 360 + (22/60) * 360 = 360 + (11/30) * 360 = 360 + 11 * 12 = 360 + 132 = 492o.
Answer: 1) 1116o; 2) 660o; 3) 2052o; 4) 492o.
