I am assuming R has this built-in. How do I reference it?

The functions you are looking for are either dnorm, pnorm or qnorm, depending on exactly what you are looking for.

dnorm(x) gives the density function at x.

pnorm(x) gives the probability that a random value is less than x.

qnorm(p) is the inverse of pnorm, giving the value of x for which getting a random value less than x has probability p.

See the help page for these functions to see how to change the parameters and values.
