Geometric probability

Geometric probability is a branch of probability that deals with the likelihood of events related to geometric shapes and figures. It often involves continuous spaces, such as measuring lengths, areas, or volumes, rather than just counting outcomes. For example, if you were to randomly choose a point on a line segment, geometric probability helps determine the chances of that point falling within a specific region, like the first half of the segment. It effectively combines geometry and probability to analyze situations where outcomes are spread over a continuous space rather than discrete items.
