Answer:
probability of selecting the square is 63.7% approximately
Step-by-step explanation:
First of all, the probability of the point of choice is within the red square can be obtained with this formula
probability = expected outcome / total number of possible outcomes
In this case, we are not dealing with discrete values which can be counted. instead, we are dealing with areas.
We are to go about this problem by finding the area of the internal square and dividing it by the area of the circle.
Area of the square
Area of the square =
where length =
Area =
Area of the circle
Area of the circle =
area of circle =
Probablity of selecting the square =
32/50.26 = 0.6366
To express this as a percentage, we multiply our answer by 100.
This will give us 0.6366 X 100 = 63.7% approximately
