In the Fig. below, JKLM is a square with sides of length 6 units. Points A and B are the
mid- points of sides KL and LM respectively. If a point is selected at random from the
interior of the square. What is the probability that the point will be chosen from the interior of ΔJAB?
उत्तर
Given: JKLM is a square with sides of length 6units. Points A and B are the midpoints of sides KL and ML respectively. If a point is selected at random from the interior of the square
To find: Probability that the point will be chosen from the interior of ΔJAB.
We the following figure
Area of square JLKM is equal to
= `6^2`
= 36 sq units
Now we have
`area(triangleKAJ)= 1/2xxAKxxKJ`
`=1/2xx3xx6`
=9 units2
`area(triangleJMB)=1/2xxJMxxBM`
`=1/2xx6xx3`
=9/2 units2
Now area of the triangle AJB
`area(triangleAJB) = 36-9-9-9/2`
=`27/2`units2
We know that Probability
=`"Number of favourable event"/"Total number of event"`
`= (27/2)/36`
`= 27/(2xx36)`
`= 3/8`
Hence the Probability that the point will be chosen from the interior of ΔAJB is `3/8`.

In fig. 7 is shown a disc on which a player spins an arrow twice. The fraction `a/b` is formed, where 'a' is the number of sector on which arrow stops on the first spin and 'b' is the number of the sector in which the arrow stops on second spin. On each spin, each sector has equal chance of selection by the arrow. Find the probability that the fraction `a/b>1.`
