3 probability math puzzlesReply
If you set the coordinates of your random points as (r*cos(theta), r*sin(theta)) and (p*cos(phi), p*sin(phi)), where r and p are uniformly distributed over (0, 1) and theta and phi are informly distributed over (0, 2*pi) you will get (2/3)R^2 as your answer. However, there is a problem with that approach. The random point (r*cos(theta), r*sin(theta)) (where r and theta are uniformly random) is not uniformly distributed over the circle. The points are concentrated in the center. So if you
