Answer 1

Formula Used:

Θ = | Hours × 30^◦- \( {11 \ \over2}\) × Minute |

Calculation:

Θ = | 2 × 30◦ - \( {11 \ \over2}\) × 13 |

Θ = | 60◦ - \( {143 \ \over2}\)|

Θ = | 60◦ - 71.5◦ |

Θ = | - 11.5◦ |

Θ = 11.5◦

Hence, "11.5◦" will be the acute angle between the hour-hand and the minute-hand at 2:13 p.m
