In the given figure, A, B, C and D are centres of four circles that have a radius of 1 unit. If a point is selected at random from interior of square ABCD, then what is the probability that it lies in the shaded region

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Area of the shaded region = Area of the square -4 times Area of the sector of the circle
area of a circle `=(2 times 2)-4 times frac{1}{4}(pi)(1)^{2}=4-pi`
Required probability`= frac{ Area of shaded region }{ Area of square }=frac{4-pi}{4}`
