Chapter 7.1, Problem 78E

Probability as an integral Two points P and Q are chosen randomly, one on each of two adjacent sides of a unit square (see figure). What is the probability that the area of the triangle formed by the sides of the square and the line segment PQ is less than one-fourth the area of the square? Begin by showing that x and y must satisfy x y < 1 2 in order for the area condition to be met. Then argue that the required probability is 1 2 + ∫ 1 / 2 1 d x 2 x and evaluate the integral.
