what is the measure of the angle swept by the hour hand if
it starts a 2 p.m on Wednesday and continuous until 5 p.m
on Thursday?
At 2 a.m on Thursday morning it has swept through 360°.
At 2 p.m on Thursday afternoon it has swept through another 360°.
At 5 p.m on Thursday it has swept through another 90°.

Answer: 360°+360°+90° = 810°\
