Answer:

BH = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The altitude divides the triangle into similar triangles. The ratio of the long side to the short side is the same for all, so ...

 AH/BH = BH/HC

 4/BH = BH/1

 4 = BH² . . . . multiply by BH

 2 = BH . . . . . take the square root

If an aircraft is present in a certain area, a radar correctly registers its presence with probability 0.99. if it is not presen
pishuonlain [190]

Answer:

A) 0.005

B) 0.001

C)0.0495

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A be the event that an aircraft is present and let B be the event the radar registers its presence.. Thus;

P(A) = Probability that an aircraft is present

P(A') = Probability that an aircraft is not present

P(B) = Probability that the radar generates an alarm

P(B') = Probability that the radar doesn't generate an alarm

Thus from what we are given, we have;

P(A) = 0.05

P(A') = 0.95

P(B) = 0.99

P(B') = 0.01

P(B|A') = 0.1

A) Probability of a false alarm will be;

P(A' ∩ B) = P(A) × P(B|A')

P(A' ∩ B) = 0.05 × 0.1 = 0.005

B) probability of missed detection is;

0.1 × (1 - 0.99) = 0.001

C) probability that an aircraft is present given that the radar registers a presence will be;

P(A ∩ B) = P(A) × P(B)

P(A ∩ B) = 0.05 × 0.99

P(A ∩ B) = 0.0495
