to Q 4)
for triangle
sum of two sides>sum of third side
draw line a
dividin in 3 parts is same as choosing 2 points
now for x+y>z
the length of one side is always less than a/2
hence we choose point x from [0,a/2)
now from x we choose second point from (x,a/2+x] so that distance between last  points also <a/2
 
so probability
=(a/2)(a/2)/a*a
=1/4
