Probability- Conditional Probability

1. The problem statement, all variables and given/known data
1 and 2 take turns shooting at a target. Each time 1 shoots he hits the target with probability p1; 2 hits it with probability p2 each time. 1 shoots first. They stop when the target has been hit twice. What is the probability that...

a) The first hit was by 1 ?
b) Both hits were by 1?
c)Both hits were by 2?

2. Relevant equations

Conditional probability?

3. The attempt at a solution

Actually I'm a little (very) rusty. I took probability a year ago, and I just don't know how to start it.
I'm totally lost here.

You're going to need to use conditional probability. If the first shot was hit by 1:

It was either hit by him on the first shot, or the second shot, or the third shot, or the fourth shot, etc. So the probability that 1 hits the first shot can be written in terms of the probabilities he gets the first shot on his nth shot.

You can do the same type of thing for the other problems. For example, the probability that the first guy gets both hits is based on the probability he gets two hits in his first two shots, and the other guys misses, and the probability that he gets two hits in his first three shots and the other guy misses, etc.
