You can put this solution on YOUR website! Find the measure of the angle formed by the two hands of a clock at 12:18
:
Find the position of the hour hand
The hour hand travels 360/12 = 30 degrees, in one hr
In 18 min it will be 18/60 * 30 = 9 degrees
:
Find the position of the minute hand
The minute hand travels 360 degrees in 1 hr
In 18 min it will be 18/60 * 360 = 108 degrees
:
The angle formed by the two hands 108 - 9 = 99 degrees
