[1] What is the mean distance between two random points on the perimeter of a unit square?

[2] What is the mean distance between two random points on the interior of a unit square?

I do notice that Charlie has used a random function to get his spread of paired points.

I notice that you have adopted a Calculus approach, but does it take into account randomization?  Honestly I am unable to tell.
