4. How many degrees are there in

Question (i)
Two right angles
Solution:
1 right angle = 90°
∴ Two right angles = 2 × 90°
= 180°

Question (ii)
$$\frac {2}{3}$$ right angles
Solution:
1 right angle = 90°
∴ $$\frac {2}{3}$$ right angles = $$\frac {2}{3}$$ × 90°
= 2 × 30°
= 60°

Four right angles?
Solution:
1 right angle = 90°
∴ Four right angles = 4 × 90°
= 360°

7. Where will be the hand of a clock stop if it starts at:

Question (i)
12 and make $$\frac {1}{4}$$ revolution clock-wise.
Solution:
For 1 revolution, the hour hand takes 12 hours.
For $$\frac {1}{4}$$ revolution, the hour hand takes $$\frac {1}{4}$$ × 12 hours = 3 hours.
If hour hand starts at 12 and make $$\frac {1}{4}$$ revolution clockwise it will stop at 3.

Question (ii)
2 and make $$\frac {1}{2}$$ revolution clock-wise.
Solution:
For 1 revolution, the hour hand takes 12 hours.
For $$\frac {1}{2}$$ revolution, the hour hand takes $$\frac {1}{2}$$ × 12 hours = 6 hours.
If hour hand starts at 2 and make $$\frac {1}{2}$$ revolution clockwise it will stop at 8.

Question (iii)
5 and make $$\frac {1}{4}$$ revolution clock-wise.
Solution:
For 1 revolution, the hour hand takes 12 hours.

If hour hand starts at 5 and make $$\frac {1}{4}$$ revolution clockwise it will stop at 8.

Question (iv)
5 and make $$\frac {3}{4}$$ revolution clock-wise.
Solution:
For 1 revolution, the hour hand takes 12 hours .
For $$\frac {3}{4}$$ revolution, the hour hand takes $$\frac {3}{4}$$ × 12 hours = 9 hours.
If hour hand starts at 5 and make $$\frac {3}{4}$$ revolution clockwise it will stop at 2.

I turned through $$\frac {1}{2}$$ part of at revolution.

9. Find the angle measure between the hands of the clock in each figure:

Solution:
(i) Angle measure between the hands of the clock at 3.00 a.m.
= $$\frac {3}{12}$$ × 360° = 90°
(ii) Angle measure between the hands of the clock at 6.00 a.m.
= $$\frac {6}{12}$$ × 360° = 180°
(iii) Angle measure between the hands of the clock at 2.00 a.m.
= $$\frac {2}{12}$$ × 360° = 60°
