Three coins are tossed. Describe Two events which are 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 mutually exclusive can be
$A:$ getting no heads and $B:$ getting no tails
This is because sets $A=\{T T T\}$ and $B=\{H H H\}$ are disjoint.
