The minute hand of a clock completes a full rotation of 360 degrees every 60 minutes. To find the angle of rotation from 6:10 to 7:00, we first need to calculate the total minutes between these two times.
From 6:10 to 7:00, the time difference is:
- From 6:10 to 6:59: 49 minutes
- From 6:59 to 7:00: 1 minute
So the total time is:
49 + 1 = 50 minutes
Next, we find out how much angle the minute hand moves in that time. Since it covers 360 degrees in 60 minutes, we can use the following simple proportion to find the angle for 50 minutes:
Angle = (360 degrees / 60 minutes) * 50 minutes = 300 degrees
Therefore, the angle of rotation of the minute hand moving from 6:10 to 7:00 is 300 degrees.
