why is it 1 - (area of triangle)/(area of Sq.)? why do we need a square since what would happen is that the 4th point can be anywhere in the space but the area of the triangle is bounded. The probability of choosing a point outside the triangle would be 1 (bound - not exact by reasoning as in (3)) and that would lead to a probability of 1.
If the bound reasoning is correct then we would have a probability of 1 to get a quadrialetral when choosing random points in a plane. --~--~---------~--~----~------------~-------~--~----~ You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "Algorithm Geeks" group.
