quite simple, here's the link, i just need to see if i got this right on question number 5 b and c:
http://www.math.tau.ac.il/~eronshir/Probability%20Theory%202008A/assignment%201.pdf
I got for:
b) the CDF is zero for t<0 and 1 for t>=0, for c) i got that it's: 0 for t<0 and t for 0<=t<1/2 and 1 for t>=1/2.
where the CDF is:
F_X(t)=P(X&lt;=t) where X is a random variable, P is the measure probability.

what do you think?

Prove $$\int\limits_0^{\sqrt2/4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx = \frac{\pi^2}{8}.$$ Let $$I = \int\limits_0^{\sqrt 2 / 4}\frac{1}{\sqrt{x-x^2}}\arcsin\sqrt{\frac{(x-1)\left(x-1+x\sqrt{9-16x}\right)}{1-2x}} \, \mathrm dx. \tag{1}$$ The representation integral of ##\arcsin## is $$\arcsin u = \int\limits_{0}^{1} \frac{\mathrm dt}{\sqrt{1-t^2}}, \qquad 0 \leqslant u \leqslant 1.$$ Plugging identity above into ##(1)## with ##u...
