Hi,

My DD and I having a discussion on the question below. Can anyone please throw light on it. :idea:

q) Find the angles between the hands of clock at 11

She says answer should be 330 as we measure angles in a clockwise direction and angles always start at 0 degrees.

My husband says it should be 30.
It is not mentioned in question reflex angle / obtuse angle/ acute angle .

Can anyone explain which is right :?:
Thx

The only time measuring of angles is clockwise is for bearings, perhaps she has been doing bearings recently so is thinking of that.


btw I've got rid of all your multiple posts for you.
