At what time immediately prior to Six O'clock the hands of
the clock are exactly opposite to each other. Give the exact
time in hours, minutes and seconds.



At what time immediately prior to Six O'clock the hands of the clock are exactly opposite to e..

Answer / guest

It is obvious that between 5 O'clock and 6 O'clock the hands
will not be exactly opposite to each other. It is also
obvious that the hands will be opposite to each other just
before 5 O'clock. Now to find exact time:

The hour hand moves 1 degree for every 12 degrees that the
minute hand moves. Let the hour hand be X degree away from 5
O'clock. Therefore the minute hand is 12X degree away from
12 O'clock.

Therefore solving for X

Angle between minute hand and 12 O'clock + Angle between 12
O'clock and 4 O'clock + Angle between 4 O'clock and hour
hand = 180

12X + 120 + (30-X) = 180

11X = 30

Hence X = 30/11 degrees

(hour hand is X degree away from 5 O'clock)

Now each degree the hour hand moves is 2 minutes.

Therefore minutes are

= 2 * 30/11

= 60/11

= 5.45 (means 5 minutes 27.16 seconds)

Therefore the exact time at which the hands are opposite to
each other is

= 4 hrs. 54 min. 32.74 seconds
