The angle between the minute hand and the hour hand of a clock when the time is 4.15 is Correct Answer 37.5

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

 

=> 30H-M5+M2 degrees

 

Here H = 4, M = 15 and the minute hand is behind the hour hand.

 

Hence the angle

 

 = 30[4-(15/5)]+15/2 = 30(1)+7.5 = 37.5 degrees
