Using the uniform distribution, it is found that there is a 0.9 probability that the tree's angle, from the vertical, will be greater than 4 degrees.
What is the uniform probability distribution?
It is a distribution with two bounds, a and b, in which each outcome is equally as likely.
The probability of finding a value above x is:
[tex]P(X > x) = \frac{b - x}{b - a}[/tex]
In this problem, the bounds are a = 3 and b = 13, hence:
[tex]P(X > 4) = \frac{13 - 4}{13 - 3} = 0.9[/tex]
There is a 0.9 probability that the tree's angle, from the vertical, will be greater than 4 degrees.
