it is actually very easy what you do is find the area of both shapes then if your problem is like find the chances of hitting the shaded area you do area of shaded divided by the total area of the whole object then multiply that by 100

What is the probability that an object tossed into a region X and lands in region Y where region Y is contained in region X?
Geometric Probability
Probability is the chance that something will or will not happen?
Usually, probability is the chance that something will happen; but it can be will not happen as well.
Does something that can never happen have a probability of 0?
Yes, a probability of 0 is something that cannot happen.
How do you predict probability?
"Probability" is not something that occurs in the future. It's the numerical likelihood of something happening in the future. You don't predict the probability. You calculate it.
How do you calculate geometric probability?
In the simplest case, a geometric probability is one that is given in terms of the ratio of two areas. For example, suppose a parachutist could land anywhere on a 10 square kilometre area of open country with equal probability, and you wanted to know how probable it would be that the parachutist would land on a designated area of 2 square kilometres with that part of open country. Then the probability would be 2 / 10 = 0.2 The same principles apply in more and more difficult or complex cases, and in spaces of higher dimension. For instance, one can discuss geometric probabilities involving three-dimensional space.
What is the definition of geometric probability?
Geometric probability is the probability of a random event within taking place a geometric plane. The idea of geometric probability covers a wide range of problems, but the common theme is probability as it applies to geometric shapes and objects.
What does geomeric probability mean?
Geometric probabilities are those that are either given in terms of geometric entities or can be computed in terms of geometric entities.For example, the probability that the ball tossed onto a moving roulette wheel coming up '00' could be considered a geometric probability.
Is geometric probability hard?
Yes it is :D
What is the best definition for probability in geometry?
Since probability is not a geometric concept, there is no definition for it in geometry.
When apply geomatric distribution?
When you want to find the probability of something happening for the first time while repeating an experiment, you use the geometric distribution. For example, you are throwing a six-faced die and you are expecting the number '6' to be thrown for the first time.
If something is certain the probability is?
The probability of something that is certain is 100% The probability of something that is completely impossible is 0%
When do you have a geometric distribution?
A geometric distribution comes from a binary probability which does not have a set number of trials. It seeks to determine how many trials must be conducted before success is achieved. For example, instead of saying, "If I shoot the ball 5 times, what is my probability of success," a geometric probability would question, "How many times will I have to shoot the ball before I make a basket?"
What is the probability that an object tossed into a region X and lands in region Y where region Y is contained in region X?
Geometric Probability
What is certain probability?
If something is certain, then the probability of that something is 1.
How do you find the prbability of getting something?
There a formula: Probability = No. of Cases in favour / Total no. of cases
What is the sum of probability that something will happen and the probability that something will NOT happen?
The sum is 1
What is probability how does probability relate to genetics?
Probability is what chance something has to happen. The Punnett Square is a way how to predict in genetics how likely an offspring is to have a trait passed on from parents, or in other words find out the probability of a trait being in the phenotype or the genotype.
