A circle measures 360°. If this circle or marked with numbers like a clock, every number would represent 30° farther from zero, and closer to 30°. If an angle marker typically found at 11 o’clock or to rotate to the police normally worked at 4 o’clock, what is the degree measure of the angle formed moving clockwise

1 answer

To find the degree measure of the angle formed by moving clockwise from 11 o'clock to 4 o'clock, we can calculate the difference between the two positions on the clock.

In a clock, the distance between two consecutive hour numbers is 30°. Starting from 11 o'clock and moving clockwise to 4 o'clock, we count 5 hour numbers: 11, 12, 1, 2, 3, and 4. Therefore, the distance covered is 5 * 30° = 150°.

Hence, the degree measure of the angle formed by moving clockwise from 11 o'clock to 4 o'clock is 150°.
