Geometric Probability Lesson 10-8 Notes You may recall that the probability of an event is the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the number of possible outcomes. 10-8
Geometric Probability Lesson 10-8 Notes Geometric probability is used when an experiment has an infinite number of outcomes. In geometric probability, the probability of an event is based on a ratio of geometric measures such as length or area. The outcomes of an experiment may be points on a segment or in a plane figure. 10-8
Geometric Probability Lesson 10-8 Notes For example, if points of segments represent outcomes, then 10-8
Remember! If an event has a probability p of occurring, the probability of the event not occurring is 1 – p. Geometric Probability Lesson 10-8 Notes 10-8
A gnat lands at random on the edge of the ruler below. Find the probability that the gnat lands on a point between 2 and 10. 2 3 P(landing between 2 and 10) = = , or length of favorable segment length of entire segment 8 12 Geometric Probability Lesson 10-8 Additional Examples Finding Probability Using Segments The length of the segment between 2 and 10 is 10 – 2 = 8. The length of the ruler is 12. Quick Check 10-8
A museum offers a tour every hour. If Benny arrives at the tour site at a random time, what is the probability that he will have to wait at least 15 minutes? Represent this using a segment. 3 4 P(waiting more than 15 minutes) = , or 3 4 45 60 The probability that Benny will have to wait at least 15 minutes is , or 75%. Geometric Probability Lesson 10-8 Additional Examples Real-World Connection Quick Check Because the favorable time is given in minutes, write 1 hour as 60 minutes. Benny may have to wait anywhere between 0 minutes and 60 minutes. Starting at 60 minutes, go back 15 minutes. The segment of length 45 represents Benny’s waiting more than 15 minutes. 10-8
Geometric Probability Lesson 10-8 Notes If the points of a region represent equally-likely outcomes, then you can find probabilities by comparing areas. 10-8
A circle is inscribed in a square target with 20-cm sides. Find the probability that a dart landing randomly within the square does not land within the circle. Find the area of the circle. Because the square has sides of length 20 cm, the circle’s diameter is 20 cm, so its radius is 10 cm. A = r 2 = (10)2 = 100 cm2 Find the area of the region between the square and the circle. A = (400 – 100 ) cm2 Geometric Probability Lesson 10-8 Additional Examples Finding Probability Using Area Find the area of the square. A = s2 = 202 = 400 cm2 10-8
(continued) Use areas to calculate the probability that a dart landing randomly in the square does not land within the circle. Use a calculator. Round to the nearest thousandth. area between square and circle area of square P (between square and circle) = = = 1 – 0.215 400 – 100 400 4 Geometric Probability Lesson 10-8 Additional Examples The probability that a dart landing randomly in the square does not land within the circle is about 21.5%.

The center of a quarter with a radius of in. must land at least in. beyond the boundary of the inner circle in order to lie entirely outside the inner circle. Because the inner circle has a radius of 9 in., the quarter must land outside the circle whose radius is 9 in. + in., or 9 in. 15 32 15 32 15 32 15 32 Geometric Probability Lesson 10-8 Additional Examples Real-World Connection To win a prize, you must toss a quarter so that it lands entirely within the outer region of the circle below. Find the probability that this happens with a quarter of radius in. Assume that the quarter is equally likely to land anywhere completely inside the large circle. 15 32 10-8
15 32 Similarly, the center of a quarter with a radius of in. must land at least in. within the outer circle. Because the outer circle has a radius of 12 in., the quarter must land inside the circle whose radius is 12 in. – in., or 11 in. 15 32 15 32 17 32 17 32 Find the area of the circle with a radius of 11 in.
