Let θ any random number from −π/2 to π/2 Determine the probability density function of x = sin θ.
7. (*) We draw randomly a point in the unit circle in the following way: first draw an angle Θ uniformly in [0.27) and then draw independently a radius R uniformly in [0, 1]. Let X R cos Θ and Y-R sin Θ be the corresponding Cartesian coordinates.

41. Find the distribution of R-A sin θ, where A is a fixed constant and θ is uniformly distributed on (-π/2, π/2). Such a random variable R arises in the theory of ballistics. If a projectile is fired from the origin at an angle α from the earth with a speed v, then the point R at which it returns to the earth can be expressed as R--(W/g) sin 2α, where g is the gravitational constant, equal to 980 centimeters...

Let a source emit a beam of light which makes an angle θ' with
the x' axis in the S' frame. Imagine that the source is at rest in
the S' frame and that the frame moves with velocity v = c β in the
x-direction with respect to the S frame. (a) Show that the angle θ
which the beam makes with the x-axis in the S frame is obtained
from Tan[θ] = 1 - β2 Sin[θ'] Cos[θ'] +...
Suppose that a point is chosen at random on a stick of unit length and that the stick is broken into two pieces at that point. Then, we form a right angle with two pieces of stick, forming the two shorter sides of a right-angled triangle. Let Θ be the smallest angle in this triangle. Define Y = tanΘ and W = cotΘ. Find E(Y ) and the p.d.f of W.
4. (Part 1)Suppose a random sample of size n is drawn from Unif(0, θ). We wish to test H0: θ = 3 vs. H1: θ > 3 using the critical region Xmax > c. If the test has α = 0.05 and β = 0.12681 when θ = 4, find the values of c and n that make this happen. (Part2) Write a simulation that checks your answer from question 4.

2. Suppose you decide to randomly generate numbers from X ~ Unif (0,0). Your friend will ask for n numbers and then use this information to guess what value you (secretly) chose for θ. Typically, one might use θMLE-max Xi-X, to estimate θ. Your friend, however, has meganumerophobia, and is afraid to say the maximum number in the random sample. Instead he'll say the second largest number: θ-Xn-1. Determine the bias of this estimator by carefully finding the density function...
