I'm having trouble with this question. Please guide me through this.

Let Z have the standard normal distribution. Then show that Y = Z2 will have the chi-squared distribution with 1 degree of freedom.

(You will have to start with the CDF of Y defined as FY (y) = P(Y y) = P(Z2 < y) = P( y Z y),

write final probability as an integral, and then use Liebnitz's Rule to differentiate the integral).)
