    How many times the hands of a clock are at right angle in a day?

    A) 24                    

    B)        16

    C) 44 

    D)        48

    E) None of these

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Explanation Option [c] is correct. It is clear from the properties of the clock that both hands of a clock are at right angle twice in every hour, except at 3:00 o'clock and 9:00 the positions are identical. So, they are at right angle 22 times in 12 hrs. Thus, in 24 hrs they are \[22\times 2=44\] times at right angle.
