Problem

A random variable XX has probability density function f\mathrm{f}, where the graph of y=f(x)y=\mathrm{f}(x) is a semicircle with centre (0,0)(0,0) and radius 2π\sqrt{\dfrac2\pi}, entirely above the xx-axis. Elsewhere f(x)=0\mathrm{f}(x)=0 (see diagram).

(a) Verify that f\mathrm{f} can be a probability density function.

(2)

AA and BB are the points where the line x=1πx=\sqrt{\dfrac1\pi} meets the xx-axis and the semicircle respectively.

(b) Show that angle AOBAOB is 14π\dfrac14\pi radians and hence find P(X>1π)\mathrm{P}\left(X>\sqrt{\dfrac1\pi}\right).

(6)
题目中文翻译

随机变量 XX 的概率密度函数为 f\mathrm{f}。y=f(x)y=\mathrm{f}(x) 的图像是一个整个位于 xx 轴上方的半圆,圆心为 (0,0)(0,0),半径为 2π\sqrt{\dfrac2\pi}。在其余各处,f(x)=0\mathrm{f}(x)=0(见图)。

(a) 验证 f\mathrm{f} 可以是一个概率密度函数。

(2)

直线 x=1πx=\sqrt{\dfrac1\pi} 与 xx 轴和半圆的交点分别为 AA 和 BB。

(b) 证明角 AOBAOB 为 14π\dfrac14\pi 弧度,并由此求 P(X>1π)\mathrm{P}\left(X>\sqrt{\dfrac1\pi}\right)。

解答

(a)

解法一

思路

展开

验证密度非负,且半圆总面积等于1。

答题过程

展开

The semicircle lies above the xx-axis, so f(x)≥0f(x)\geq0. Its area is

12π(2π)2=1.\frac12\pi\bigg(\sqrt{\frac2\pi}\bigg)^2=1.

Thus ff satisfies the two requirements for a probability density function.

由直角三角形求角度,再用扇形面积减去三角形面积,得到右侧圆弓形的概率。

答题过程

In the right-angled triangle OABOAB,

cos⁡∠AOB= OAOB= 1/π2/π=12.\begin{align*} \cos\angle AOB=&\,\frac{OA}{OB}\\[4mm] =&\,\frac{\sqrt{1/\pi}}{\sqrt{2/\pi}}=\frac1{\sqrt2}. \end{align*}

Since ∠AOB\angle AOB is acute,

∠AOB=π4.\boxed{\angle AOB=\frac\pi4}.

Also,

AB=OB2−OA2=2π−1π=1π.AB=\sqrt{OB^2-OA^2} =\sqrt{\frac2\pi-\frac1\pi} =\frac1{\sqrt\pi}.

The region to the right of x=1πx=\frac1{\sqrt\pi} is the sector with angle π4\frac\pi4 minus triangle OABOAB. Therefore

 P(X>1π)= 12(2π)π4−12(1π)2= 14−12π= 0.0908(3 s.f.).\begin{align*} &\,\mathrm{P}\bigg(X>\frac1{\sqrt\pi}\bigg)\\[4mm] =&\,\frac12\bigg(\frac2\pi\bigg)\frac\pi4 -\frac12\bigg(\frac1{\sqrt\pi}\bigg)^2\\[4mm] =&\,\boxed{\frac14-\frac1{2\pi}}\\[4mm] =&\,0.0908\quad\text{(3 s.f.).} \end{align*}

先证明题目要求的角度,再从圆方程写出密度。以正弦代换求圆弓形面积的积分,展示与几何法不同的计算路线。

答题过程

展开

As OA/OB=1/2OA/OB=1/\sqrt2 and ∠AOB\angle AOB is acute, ∠AOB=π4\angle AOB=\frac\pi4.

Put R=2/πR=\sqrt{2/\pi}. The upper semicircle has equation

f(x)=R2−x2.f(x)=\sqrt{R^2-x^2}.

Hence

P(X>1π)=∫1/πRR2−x2 dx.\mathrm{P}\bigg(X>\frac1{\sqrt\pi}\bigg) =\int_{1/\sqrt\pi}^R\sqrt{R^2-x^2}\,\mathrm{d}x.

Use x=Rsin⁡θx=R\sin\theta. The limits become θ=π4\theta=\frac\pi4 and θ=π2\theta=\frac\pi2, and dx=Rcos⁡θ dθ\mathrm{d}x=R\cos\theta\,\mathrm{d}\theta. Therefore

 P(X>1π)= R2∫π/4π/2cos⁡2θ dθ= 2π[θ2+sin⁡2θ4]π/4π/2= 2π(π4−π8−14)= 14−12π.\begin{align*} &\,\mathrm{P}\bigg(X>\frac1{\sqrt\pi}\bigg)\\[4mm] =&\,R^2\int_{\pi/4}^{\pi/2}\cos^2\theta\,\mathrm{d}\theta\\[4mm] =&\,\frac2\pi\bigg[\frac\theta2+\frac{\sin2\theta}{4}\bigg]_{\pi/4}^{\pi/2}\\[4mm] =&\,\frac2\pi\bigg(\frac\pi4-\frac\pi8-\frac14\bigg)\\[4mm] =&\,\boxed{\frac14-\frac1{2\pi}}. \end{align*}
