In square QRST, points U and V are midpoints. If the square has a side length of 14.6 mm, what is the probability
that a point chosen at random in the square lies in the shaded triangle region? Round the answer to the nearest
thousandth
A. 0.034
B. 0.068
C. 0.125
D 0.548

JKLM is a square with sides of length 6 units. Points A and B are the midpoints of sides KL and ML, respectively. If a point is selected at random from the interior of the square.

We have to find the probability that the point will be chosen from the interior of △JAB.

Now,

Area of square JKLM is equal to 6
