A dartboard is the region B in the coordinate plane consisting of points such that . A target T is the region where . A dart is thrown at a random point in B. The probability that the dart lands in T can be expressed as , where and are relatively prime positive integers. What is ?
Solution 1
Inequalities of this form are well-known and correspond to a square in space with centre at origin and vertices at , , , . The diagonal length of this square is clearly , so it has an area of Now, Converting to polar form, And
This corresponds to a ring in space with outer radius and inner radius . Note that the outer circle is inscribed within the square, meaning it completely lies within the square.
Our probability, then, is and So
