If a wheel has six spokes equally spaced, then find the measure of the angle between two adjacent spokes.

उत्तर
It is given that the six spokes are equally spaced, thus, two adjacent spokes subtend equal angle at the centre of the wheel.
Let that angle measures x°
Also, the six spokes form a complete angle, that is, 360°
Therefore,
`x + x+ x + x+ x+x = 360°`
` 6x = 360°`
` x = (360°)/6`
` x = 60°`
Hence, the measure of the angle between two adjacent spokes measures 60°.
