Answer:

1/8 or 0.125

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the length of the sides of the square ABCD.

Therefore, the length of CN and CM is x/2.

The area of the triangle MCN is:

A_t = \frac{0.5x*0.5x}{2}=\frac{x^2}{8}

The area of the square ABCD is:

A_s =x*x =x^2

Thus, the probability that a random point lies in the triangle MCN is:

P=\frac{A_t}{A_s}=\frac{\frac{x^2}{8}}{x^2}=\frac{1}{8}=0.125

The probability that the point will lie in the triangle MCN is 1/8 or 0.125.
