A square dart board is placed in the first quadrant from x = 0 to x = 6 and y = 0 to y = 6. A triangular region on the dart board is enclosed by y = 2, x = 6 and y = x. Find the probability that a dart that randomly hits the dart board will land in the triangular region formed by the three lines. Select the correct answer from above options

Best answer
Area of square board `=(6)^(2)=36` sq. units `"Now, "DE= 6-2=4 units` BD = 6-2=4 uints `therefore" Area of "triangleBDE=(1)/(2)xxDExxBD=(1)/(2)xx4xx4` = 8 sq. units `" Hence, required probability "=("Area of "triangleBDE)/("Area of square OABC")` `=(8)/(6xx6)=(2)/(9)`
