| In [[geometric probability]] theory, '''Wendel's theorem''', named after James G. Wendel, gives the probability that ''N'' points [[continuous uniform distribution|distributed uniformly]] at random on an [[n-sphere|''n''-dimensional hypersphere]] all lie on the same "half" of the hypersphere. In other words, one seeks the probability that there is some [[hyperplane]] intersecting the center of the hypersphere such that all the points lie on the same side of the hyperplane. Wendel's theorem says that the probability is<ref>{{citation
