Basic formula for finding angle between hour and minute hand

Answer»

Clock angle PROBLEMS relate two different measurements: angles and time. The angle is typically measured in degrees from the mark of number 12 clockwise. The time is USUALLY based on 12-hour clock.

A method to solve such problems is to consider the rate of change of the angle in degrees PER minute. The hour hand of a normal 12-hour analogue clock turns 360° in 12 hours (720 minutes) or 0.5° per minute. The minute hand rotates through 360° in 60 minutes or 6° per minute.
