Hello, I am trying to derive the coverage probability from the confidence interval above. I understand derivatives, but I am unsure where to go from here. Any help is appreciated.

I understand that this is a normal-based 1-a confidence interval

So as an approximation, you can pretend that T is indeed a standard normal

#

You know how to compute confidence intervals for standard normals right?
