Three coins are tossed. Describe Two events, which are not mutually exclusive.
Three coins are tossed. Describe Two events, which are not mutually exclusive.
When three coins are tossed, the sample space is given by
$S =\{ HHH , \,HHT , \,HTH ,\, HTT , \,THH , \,THT , \,TTH , \,TTT \}$
Two events that are not mutually exclusive can be
$A:$ getting three heads
$B:$ getting at least $2$ heads
ie. $A=\{H H H\}$
$B =\{ HHH , \,HHT , \,HTH ,\, THH \}$
This is because $A \cap B=\{H H H\} \neq \phi$

An experiment consists of tossing a coin and then throwing it second time if a head occurs. If a tail occurs on the first toss, then a die is rolled once. Find the sample space.
