Motivated by models in engineering and also biology we determine in closed form the probability density function of the angle shaped by two random chords in a fixed disc. Our main result focus on the event in which the intersection locates…

In this paper we obtain the density function and the distribution function of the distance between two uniformly and independently distributed random points in any right-angled triangle. The density function is derived from the chord length…

If a line cuts randomly two sides of a triangle, the length of the segment determined by the points of intersection is also random. The object of this study, applied to a particular case, is to calculate the probability that the length of…

It has been known that the distribution of the random distances between two uniformly distributed points within a convex polygon can be obtained based on its chord length distribution (CLD). In this report, we first verify the existing…
