A coin has two faces: head $(H)$ and tail $(T)$.

A die has six faces that are numbered from $1$ to $6,$ with one number on each face.

Thus, when a coin is tossed and then a die is rolled only in case a head is shown on the coin. the sample space is given by:

$S =\{ H1, \,H 2,\, H 3,\, H 4, \,H 5, \,H 6,\, T \}$
