Question

A which time on a clock would the minute and hour hands from a linear angle?

A.)12:00
B.)3:00
C:)6:00
D.)9:00

Answer 1

Only at 6:00, the hands will be at the position of Linear Angle.

Explanation:

Linear Angle: Linear Angle also called a Straight Angle and its measures is equivalent to 180°

Now, here check each scenario

A.) 12:00

At 12: 00 Sharp, both the hands will be at 12.

Hence there will be a ZERO DEGREE ANGLE between them.

B.) 3:00

At 3: 00 Sharp, the hour hand will be at 3, minute hand at 12.

Hence there will be a ninety degree (RIGHT ANGLE) angle between them.

B.) 6:00

At 6: 00 Sharp, the hour hand will be at 6, minute hand at 12.

Hence there will be a 180 degree (LINEAR ANGLE) angle between them.

B.) 9:00

At 9: 00 Sharp, the hour hand will be at 9, minute hand at 12.

Hence there will be a ninety (RIGHT ANGLE) degree angle between them.

Hence, only at 6:00, the hands will be at the position of linear angle.
