DescriptionEB1911 Probability - band and circle.jpg |
English: A straight band of breadth c being traced on a floor, and a circle of radius r thrown on it at random: find the mean area of the band which is covered by the circle. Let A be a position of the random point; the favourable cases are when HK, the bisector of the band, meets a circle, centre A, radius ½c; and the whole number are when HK meets a circle, centre O, radius r + ½c. |
