At 2'O clock, the hands of a clock make an acute angle and a reflex angle. How much is the reflex angle (in degrees)? Correct Answer 300°

The angle between the hour hand and minute hand = (30H - 11M/2)

Here, H = hour M = Minute

At 2'O clock

H = 2 and M = 0

So, (30 × 2 - 11 × 0/2)

or (60 - 0)

or 60º

Now reflex angle is = 360º - 60º = 300º

Hence, correct answer is 300º.
