Logical Reasoning(Master ) Clock

At what time between 5.30 and 6 will the hands of a clock be at right angles?

(43 + 5/11) min past 5

(43 + 7/11) min pats 5

At 5 o'clock, the hands are 25 min. spaces apart.
To be at right angles and that too between 5.30 and 6,

the minute hand has to gain (25 + 15) = 40 min. spaces.

55 min. spaces are gained in 60 min

40 min. spaces are gained in 60/55×40 min

Hence, option 2 is the correct answer.
