The angle between the minute hand and the hour hand of a clock when the time is 8.30, is  Choose the correct choice from the following: A) 35° B) 65° C) 45° D) 75° E) 95°
Angle between hands of a clock   When the minute hand is behind the hour hand, the angle between the two hands at M minutes past H 'o clock   =30(H−M/5)+M/2 degree   When the minute hand is ahead of the hour hand, the angle between the two hands at M minutes past H 'o clock   =30(M/5−H)−M/2 degree   Here H = 8, M = 30 and minute hand is behind the hour hand.   Hence the angle   =30(H−M/5)+M/2   =30(8−30/5)+30/2   =30(8−6)+15   =30×2+15 =75°   Answer is 75°.
