Let $X sim uniform(0,theta)$ we are testing $H_0: theta = 1$ vs $H_1: theta >1$ If we know that we reject $H_0$ if $X>0.9$
(1) find $alpha$, the type I error
(2)Suppose that $theta=1.1$. Find $beta$ the type II error probability
I would appreciate some advise on solving this.
for (1) I thought I could start with.
$alpha=P(X>0.9|H_0)$ Which is the probability of rejecting $H_0$ if $X>0.9$ as given in the problem. Do I use the cdf and integrate?
I honestly don't know how to go from here.

You're on the right track. The type I error is the probability to reject $H_0$ under $H_0$, so $alpha=P(X>0.9|theta = 1)$.
Under $H_0$, $Xsim U(lbrack 0,1rbrack )$, so you just have to determine the probability that a $U(lbrack 0,1rbrack )$ distributed random variable to be greater than $0.9$.
The type II is the probability not to reject $H_0$ when $H_0$ is wrong.
$endgroup$
$begingroup$
Ok I reviewed some concepts on uniform distribution, and $P(X>0.9)=P(X leq 1)-P(X leq .09)= 1-0.9=0.1$ which gives a $0.1$ value for $alpha$ and a $0.8181818$ value for $beta$ when $theta = 1.1$which I think makes more sense.
