Staying in the triangle
Discrete Mathematics
Level
4
Three points are chosen uniformly at random from the boundary of a square and a fourth point is chosen uniformly at random from the interior. The probability that the 4th point lies in the triangle formed by the other 3 points can be expressed as \(\frac{a}{b}\) where \(a\) and \(b\) are coprime positive integers. What is the value of \(a + b?\)
