: A circular pool of radius 12ft is enclosed within a rectangular yard measuring 50ft by 100ft. If a ball from an adjacent golf course lands at a random point within the yard, what is the probability that the ball lands in the pool? This question is from textbook Study guide and pratice workbook
You can put this solution on YOUR website! A circular pool of radius 12ft is enclosed within a rectangular yard measuring 50ft by 100ft. If a ball from an adjacent golf course lands at a random point within the yard, what is the probability that the ball lands in the pool?
------------------------
Probability = [area of pool]/[area of rectangle-area of pool]
=[pi*12^2]/[50*100]
=[144pi]/[5000]
=0.09
