The probability that a randomly selected point within the circle falls
in the red shaded area will be 33.33%.
What is probability?
Probability is defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes in other words the probability is the number that shows the happening of the event.
Probability = Number of favorable outcomes / Number of sample
Given that the shaded red sector has an angle of 60 degrees and the radius of the circle is 4 cm. The probability will be calculated as:-
The formula for a circle's sector's area is (Ф/360°) x π(r²), where r is the circle's radius and is the sector's angle.
Area of shaded region = (Ф/360°) x π(r²),
Area of shaded region = ( 60 / 360 ) x π (4²)
Area of shaded region = 8.377 square cm
Total shaded area = 2 x 8. 377 = 16.75 square cm
Total area of circle = π (4²) = 50.265 square cm
The probability is calculated by the formula below:-
Probability = Number of favorable outcomes / Number of sample
Number of favorable outcomes = 8.377
Number of sample = 50.265 square cm
Probability = 8.377 / 50.265 = 0.3333 = 33.33%
Therefore, the probability that a randomly selected point within the circle falls in the red-shaded area will be 33.33%.
