Scope and practical limits

Angles 0–180 degrees. Uses continuously moving hands over one half-open 12-hour cycle. Displayed seconds are rounded to 0–3 decimal places; precise seconds-after-12 and hand angles remain available in the report.

Using Find Clock Times from Hand Angle

Find every continuous hour-and-minute hand solution for a chosen smaller angle in a 12-hour cycle, with precise seconds and hand-position reports.

  1. Start with the example and set the relevant dates, range or clock settings.
  2. Review validation messages and the calculated results, including calendar conventions and day offsets.
  3. Download JSON or CSV; where available, export all-day calendar events. Save a project to retain your inputs.

Example

A 90-degree smaller angle has 22 solutions in one 12-hour cycle.
Coincident hands and opposite hands each have 11 distinct solutions in that cycle.

Questions & answers

Are these times restricted to whole seconds?

No. The mathematical solutions can fall between seconds. Display rounding can introduce a small apparent angle difference.

Why does the list not repeat 12:00 at the end?

The cycle includes its beginning and excludes the next 12:00, avoiding a duplicate endpoint.
