It is a question posed for effect and not because an answer is expected. Usually the answer is obvious. It can be used in a humorous or negative way or sarcastically or to make a point. Some examples: instead of saying 'I don't know', someone could say 'how would I know?' or in an unpleasant situation 'do we have to stand in this line?' 'why is this taking so long?' it's only rhetorical if an answer is not expected or if it's obvious.
