There are some experiment in which the outcomes cannot be identified discretely. For example, an ellipse of eccentricity 2sqrt(2)//3 is inscribed in a circle and a point within the circle is chosen at random. Now, we want to find the probability that this point lies outside the ellipse. Then, the point must lie in the shaded region shown in Figure. Let the radius of the circle be a and length of minor axis of the ellipse be 2b. Given that 1 - (b^(2))/(a^(2)) = (8)/(9) or (b^(2))/(a^(2)) = (1)/(9) Then, the area of circle serves as sample space and area of the shaded region represents the area for favorable cases. Then, required probability is p= ("Area of shaded region")/("Area of circle") =(pia^(2) - piab)/(pia^(2)) = 1 - (b)/(a) = 1 - (1)/(3) = (2)/(3) Now, answer the following questions. Two persons A and B agree to meet at a place between 5 and 6 pm. The first one to arrive waits for 20 min and then leave. If the time of their arrival be independant and at random, then the probability that A and B meet is

Read the problem given below, and then answer the questions that follow Five friends are standing in line for the opening of a show. They are in line according to their arrival. Shreya arrived 3 minutes after Sachin. Roy took his place in line at 9:01 P.M. He was 1 minute behind Reena and 7 minutes ahead of Shreya. The first person arrived at 9:00 P.M. Babu showed up 6 minutes after the first person. List the time of each person’s arrival. List the friends’ order of arrival from the earliest to the last.

A person from A starts to walk at 7 am and reaches B at 1 pm and another person starts to walk from B at 8 am and reaches A at 11 am. Find the time at which they meet each other.

Two persons A and B started from two different places towards each other. If the ratio of their speeds be 3 : 5, then what is the ratio of distance covered by A and B respectively till the point of meeting?
