  • This geometry & Trigonometry video tutorial explains how to solve clock aptitude problems with shortcuts and tricks provided. It explains how to find the angle between the hands of a clock given time. It's important to understand that 12 hours represent 360 degrees and 1 hour represents 30 degrees. If the minute hand is at 12, the hour hand will be directly on the number it's pointing at. If the minute hand is on the 6, the hour hand will be in between two numbers. This video contains plenty of examples and practice problems.

    In the last sol. It must be taken as 6 hrs as 12 to 5 = 5hrs & 11 to 12 is 1 hr more. So (5+1) hr + ( 25mins)
    = 6hrs 25mins
    = 30°×6 + 12.5°
    =180°+12.5°
    =192.5° [ solution ]
    Anyways nice explanation! Keep trying!

    a magic formula for all clock problems :
    m = (phi +/- theta)(2/11)
    where m = minutes
    phi = angle from min hand to hour hand
    theta = angle from min hand to hour hand after m passed

    | (60H - 11M)/2 |
    here, if angle resulted is more than 180, then subtract that angle from 360° till it is below 180°

      Minute hand points at 11
      Hour hand points essentially at 4
      55/60 = 11/12
      11/12 * 6*5 + 5*30 = 11/2 * 5 + 5*30
