Question 6:
The number of right angles turned through by the hour hand of a clock when it goes from 2 to 8 is:
A right angle corresponds to a 90-degree turn.
1 hour on the clock represents .
- From 2 to 8, the hour hand moves hours.
- Therefore, the total angle turned is .
- right angles.
Answer: (b) 2
Question 7:
