Verify which of the following is p.d.f. of r.v. X:

 f(x) = sin x, for 0 ≤ x ≤ `π/2`

योग

उत्तर

(a) f(x) = sin x ≥ 0 if 0 ≤ x ≤ `π/2`

(b) `int_(-∞)^∞ f(x) dx =  int_(-∞)^0 f(x) dx + int_(-∞)^(π/2) f(x) dx + int_( π/2)^∞ f(x) dx`

= `0 +int_(0)^(π/2) sinx  dx + 0`

= `[-cosx]_0^(π/2) = -cos(π/2) + cos0 = 0 + 1 = 1`

Hence, f(x) is the p.d.f. of X.
