Question: The time is 1 o'clock. What are the next two times at which the hour and minute hands will be perpendicular?

The next two times at which the hands of the clock will be perpendicular are at 1:20 and at 1:50.

When will the hands be perpendicular?

The two hands will be perpendicular when the angle between them is 90°. Remember that every 5 minutes that the minute clock moves, there is an angle of 30°.

Each hour that the hour hand moves, there is an angle of 30°.

The first time that we will have an angle of 90° between the hands is at:

1:20

Because the minute hand is at an angle of -30° with respect to the x-axis at 20 minutes, and the hour hand is at an angle of 60° at 01.

The next time will be when the minute clock moves another 30 minutes (half the circle) and this will be at 01:50.
