Answer:
a. 120 degrees
b. 2.0944 radians
Step-by-step explanation:
From 12:00 to 12:15 there forms a 90 degree angle. If we divide this by 3 we get that every 5 minutes the hand moves 30 degrees. Since in this scenario, the minute hand moved from 12:10 to 12:30 it, therefore, moved a total of 20 minutes so we can do the following math
20 / 5min = 4 times
4 * 30 degrees = 120 degrees
We can see that in this time it moved a total of 120 degrees. Now we can use this value to turn it into radians using the degree to radians formula
degrees * [tex]\pi /180[/tex] = radians
120 * [tex]\pi / 180[/tex] = radians
2.0944 = radians
