Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer: 1. 0.25 and 2. 0.75.

Step-by-step explanation: As shown in the attached figure, we are given two concentric circles A and B with centre 'O', radius 5 cm and 10 cm respectively.

So, area of circle A is given by

a_1=\pi\times 5^2=25\pi

and

area of circle B is

a_2=\pi\times 10^2=100\pi.

So, the areq lying between circle A and B is

a_3=a_2-a_1=75\pi.

Therefore, the probability that the arrow will hit inside circle A is

p_1=\dfrac{25\pi}{25\pi+75\pi}=\dfrac{1}{4}=0.25

and the probability that the arrow will hit between the two circles A and B is

p_2=\dfrac{75\pi}{25\pi+75\pi}=\dfrac{3}{4}=0.75.

Thus, the probabilities are 0.25 and 0.75.
