Q43 of 43 Page 296

Match the following

(a) If E1 and E2 are the two mutually exclusive events

We know that,


When two events are mutually exclusive then


P(E1⋂ E2) = ϕ


Hence, (a) ↔ (iv)


(b) If E1 and E2 are the mutually exclusive and exhaustive events



Hence, (b) ↔ (iii)


(c) If E1 and E2 have common outcomes (E1 – E2) ⋃ (E1⋂ E2) = E1



Hence, (c) ↔ (ii)


(d) If E1 and E2 are two events such that E1⊂ E2



⇒ E1⋂ E2 = E1


Hence, (d) ↔ (i)
