Using Segment and Area Models
You may recall that the probability of an event is the ratio of the number of
favorable outcomes to the number of possible outcomes.
Vocabulary Tip
P(event) is read
”the probability
of an event.“

P(event) = favorable
possible outcomes
Sometimes you can use a geometric probability model in which you let points
represent outcomes. You find probabilities by comparing measurements of sets of
points. For example, if points of segments represent outcomes, then
