what is the measure in degrees of the smallest angle formed by the hour hand and the minute hand of a clock ayt 11:20

OpenStudy (anonymous):

140 degrees

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ohh this is so fun!!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok think about how many numbers are on a clock and how many degress are in a circle!!!!

OpenStudy (anonymous):

degrees*

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I can't draw the clock here, but the angle could be divided into two: one stretching from 12 to 4 and the other from one thirds past 11 to 12

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I'm stuck on how to set up the proportion

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I don't think you really need one here. Each of the twelve central angles have 30 degrees each. The angle in question covers four and two-thirds of these central angles. Therefore, the answer would be 140
