(choose chapter or problem)

A random sample of size  is taken from a population with a Rayleigh distribution. As in Exercise , the Rayleigh density function is

\(\mathrm{f}(\mathrm{y})=\left\{\begin{array}{ll}  \left(\frac{2 \mathrm{y}}{\theta}\right) \mathrm{e}^{-\mathrm{y}^{2} / \theta, \theta} & \mathrm{y}>0 \\  0, & \text { elsewhere }

\end{array}\right.\)


a Find the  of \(\theta\)
b Find the approximate variance of the MLE obtained in part (a).
