Three of the six vertices of a regular hexagon are chosen at random. What is the probability that the triangle with these vertices is equilateral?
विकल्प
`3/10`
`3/20`
`1/20`
`1/10`
उत्तर
`1/10`
Explanation:
ABCDEF is a regular hexagon.
Total number of triangles 6C3 = 20. ....(Since no three points are collinear).
Of these only ∆ACE; ∆BDF are equilateral triangles.
Therefore, required probability = `2/20 = 1/10`.
