  1. We know that, the minute hand makes an angle of 360° in one hour.
    Hence, angle formed in 5 minutes
    = 360°/60° x 5 = 30°
    Therefore, area swept be the minute hand in 5 minutes.
    = Area of sector of angle 30°
    = 30° x πr²
    = 1/12 x π(14) ²
    = 1/12 x 22/7 x 14 x 14
    = 154/3 cm²
