List of top Mathematics Questions on Angles – ‘Right’ and ‘Straight’

Where will the hour hand of a clock stop if it starts:
(a) from 6 and turns through 1 right angle?
(b) from 8 and turns through 2 right angles?
(c) from 10 and turns through 3 right angles?
(d) from 7 and turns through 2 straight angles? 
How many right angles do you make if you start facing:
(a) South and turn clockwise to west?
(b) North and turn anti-clockwise to east?
(c) West and turn to west?
(d) South and turn to north? 
Find the number of right angles turned through by the hour hand of a clock when it goes from:
(a) 3 to 6
(b) 2 to 8
(c) 5 to 11
(d) 10 to 1
(e) 12 to 9
(f) 12 to 6 

Which direction will you face if you start facing: 

Which direction will you face if you start facing

(a) East and make \(\frac{1}{2}\) of a revolution clockwise? 

(b) East and make \(\frac{11}{2}\) of a revolution clockwise? 

(c) West and makes \(\frac{3}{4}\) of a revolution, clockwise? 

(d) South and make one full revolution? 

(Should we specify clockwise or anti-clockwise for this last question? Why not?) 

What part of a revolution have you turned through if you stand facing: 

(a) East and turn clockwise to face north?
