Question Number 38190 by ajfour last updated on 22/Jun/18

Commented by ajfour last updated on 22/Jun/18

       What is the time in the                       outer clock ?    Ignore the minute hand of the  bigger clock. Then it will be a  correct question, i think now.

Ignoring the minute hand,  the time in outer clock by its  hour hand :  let ∠ of hour hand of bigger clock  from postion 6 o′clck be θ.  8asin θ=2a+(8acos θ+a)tan 30°  8(sin θ−((cos θ)/(√3)))=2+(1/(√3))  8((√3)sin θ−cos θ)=1+2(√3)  sin (θ−(π/6))=((1+2(√3))/(16))  θ=(π/6)+sin^(−1) (((1+2(√3))/(16)))  H=6−(6/π)[(π/6)+sin^(−1) (((1+2(√3))/(16)))]    H = 5−(6/π)sin^(−1) (((1+2(√3))/(16))) .  __(wrong previous answer)    t =[ 4+(6/𝛑)sin^(−1) (((1+2(√3))/(16))) ] hours .

please check sir. should it not be   t =[5−(6/𝛑)sin^(−1) (((1+2(√3))/(16))) ] hours ?

Yes Sir, it is as you suggest.
