Triangles, Fractales and Spaghetti

Published 29 Sep 2022 in math.HO and math.PR | (2209.14980v1)

Abstract: There is well-known problem of geometric probability which can be quote as the Broken Spaghetti Problem. It addresses the following question: A stick of spaghetti breaks into three parts and all points of the stick have the same probability to be a breaking point. What is the probability that the three sticks, putting together, form a triangle? In these notes, we describe a hidden geometric pattern behind the symmetric version of this problem, namely a fractal that parametrizes the sample space of this problem. Using that fractal, we address the question about the probability to obtain a $\delta$-equilateral triangle.
