Question

What is the probability that the measurement of the segment is greater than 3 !!!

Answer 1

Answer:

Probability = $\frac{3}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of segment AD = 12 units

Since, AC = CD

Therefore, AC = CD = $\frac{12}{2}$ = 6 units

Since, AB = BC

Therefore, AB = BC = $\frac{1}{2}AC$ = 3 units

Number of total segments = 5

Number of segments having measure greater than three = 3

(AC = CD = 6 units and AD = 12 units)

Probability that the measure of a segment is greater than 3

= $\frac{\text{Number of segments measuring greater than 3}}{\text{Total number of segments}}$

= $\frac{3}{5}$
