Consider two unit $\mathbb R^2$ vectors $v$ and $w$. Then $v+w$ lies within a (closed) circle with radius 2, that is, in the region $x^2+y^2\leq4$.
Intuitively, the probability of $v+w$ lying close to the center is higher.
What is the exact probability density?
I tried to solve a problem in a naive way, but I get strange infinite quantities.
That is, i get $\frac{1}{2\pi} \delta(|r-1|-1)$.
If $v_1=\mathrm e^{\mathrm i\theta_1}$ and $v_2=\mathrm e^{\mathrm i\theta_2}$, then $v=v_1+v_2$ is $v=r\mathrm e^{\mathrm i\theta}$ with $r=2\cos(\frac12(\theta_1-\theta_2))$ and $\theta=\frac12(\theta_1+\theta_2)$. If $\theta_1$ and $\theta_2$ are i.i.d. uniform on the circle $S^1=\mathbb R/2\pi\mathbb Z$, then $r$ and $\theta$ are independent and $\theta$ is uniformly distributed on $S^1$. Furthermore, $|r|=2\cos(\alpha)$ where $\alpha$ is uniform on $(0,\frac\pi2)$ hence $\mathbb P(|r|\geqslant2x)=\mathbb P(\alpha\leqslant\arccos(x))=\frac2\pi\arccos(x)$ for every $x$ in $(0,1)$. Thus, the density $f_r$ of $r$ is $$ f_r(x)=\frac{\mathbf 1_{|x|\lt 2}}{\pi\sqrt{4-x^2}}. $$
