Complex Boolean, place Boolean value in code

Attached you'll see notes on previous lessons and challenges. The current challenge is on top. It's unclear what I'm being asked to do. . Based upon previous lessons - where am I to glean what to do?

script.js
if (correctGuess) {
    alert('This is true');
} else {
    alert('This is false');
}

//notes taken on Boolean//
var correctGuess = false;
var randomNumber = (Math.floor math.random() * 6) +1;
var guess = prompt ('I am thinking of a number between 1 and 6. What is it?);
    if (parseInt guess = randomNumber===randomNumber){
  correctGuess = true;

if (correctGuess){
  document.write ('<p>You guessed the right number</p>');
}else{
  document.write('<p>Sorry. This number was '+ randomNumber +</p>');

For this challenge it just wants you to pass the value 'true' in as a parameter where you have 'correctGuess'.

Thank you, Nicholas!
