COMMENTS

This is also the expected distance from a randomly selected point in the unit square to a corner, as well as the expected distance from a randomly selected point in a 45-45-90 degree triangle of base length 1 to a vertex with an acute angle. - Derek Orr, Jul 27 2014

The average length of chords in a unit square drawn between two points uniformly and independently chosen at random on two adjacent sides. - Amiram Eldar, Aug 08 2020
