The calculator is selecting random x-values between 0 and 1 and random y-values between 0 and 1. The calculator is then going to count the number of times a point is in the region bounded by the first quadrant of the x-y plane and a circle centered at the origin with a radius of 1. Students are asked to run 10 trials of size 50 on their calculator. ................
