If a circle with a diameter 20cm is placed inside square with a length 20cm, what is the chance that a dart thrown will land the circle.
please help me :(
Answers
Answer:
1/2 is the answer
Step-by-step explanation:
as the dart can either land in the circle or the square (2 events) the probability will be 1 out of 2
The chance that a dart thrown will land in the circle is 79%.
Given,
Diameter of the circle = 20 cm
The side length of the square = 20 cm
The circle is placed inside the square
To Find,
The chance that a dart thrown will land in the circle.
Solution,
To get the probability that a dart thrown will land in the circle, we need to find the sample space and targeted area.
Probability =
The sample space here would be the area of the square.
The targeted area would be the area of the circle.
Sample space = Area of the square
Sample space = (Side length)²
Sample space = (20 cm)²
Sample space = 400 cm²
Targeted Area = Area of the circle
Targeted Area = π ()² (where d is the diameter of the circle)
Targeted Area = π ()
Targeted Area = π ()
Targeted Area = π ()
Targeted Area = 100π cm²
Targeted Area ≈ 314.15 cm²
Probability =
Probability ≈ 0.79
Chance = Probability x 100%
Chance = 0.79 x 100%
Chance = 79%
Thus, the chance is 79%.
