What is the reflex angle between the hands of a clock at 4:30 ?

  • A.300°
  • B.305°
  • C.310°
  • D.315°

Answer: B

Correct answer: 315°

First find the ordinary angle between the hands.

\[\text{Hour hand} = 4 \times 30 + 30 \times 0.5 = 120 + 15 = 135°\]

\[\text{Minute hand} = 30 \times 6 = 180°\]

The hands are \(180 - 135 = 45°\) apart, so the reflex angle is

\[360 - 45 = 315°\]
