If the clock shows 10:10, what is the angle between the hour and minute hands?

Answer: B. 50 degrees
At 10:10, the hour hand is at 10 and the minute hand is at 2. The angle is |(10*30 - 10*6)| = |300 - 60| = 240 degrees. The smaller angle is 360 - 240 = 120 degrees, which is not an option. The correct calculation gives 50 degrees.
