Looking Back to your Lesson
From your previous lesson, you have learned the different key concepts of
inequalities in a triangle, and parallel and perpendicular lines. It enables you to
communicate mathematical thinking with coherence and clarity in formulating,
investigating, analyzing, and solving real-life problems involving triangle inequalities,
and parallelism and perpendicularity of lines using appropriate and accurate
representations.

Introduction of the Topic
In this module, you will learn more about the basic concepts in probability and
the different methods in writing the number of occurrences of an outcome of an
experiment.
In nature, there are lots of occurrences like tossing a coin or rolling a die, or to
simple things like “will it rain today?” whose results cannot be predicted with certainty
or conviction in advance, but the set of all the possible outcomes or result is known to
us.
These are what we call random phenomena or random experiments. Probability
theory is concerned with such random phenomena or random experiments.
Probability is a branch of Mathematics that enables us to predict the occurrence of

an event as a result of an experiment. It is the chance that something will happen.
Events cannot be predicted with total certainty. It is how likely to happen.
There are certain terms that you need to clarify its meaning before you go any further.
Experiment is a chance process that leads to a well-defined result.
Examples:
1. Tossing of coin
Page | 3
2. Rolling a die
3. Spinning of a Wheel
Outcome is the result of a single trial of an experiment.
Sample space (S) is the set of all the possible outcomes or sample points of an
experiment.
Sample point is just one of the possible outcomes.
Look at the example below:
“King” is not a sample point because there are four Kings in the deck of 52
cards which are four (4) different sample points. King of Hearts is a one of these
sample points.
Page | 4
Event (E) is any set of one or more outcomes satisfying some given conditions.
Examples:
a. Getting a “T” when flipping a coin
b. Getting an “even number” (2, 4, or 6) when rolling a die
c. Choosing a “King” from a deck of cards (any of the 4 Kings)
Let’s look at the following basic experiments.
1. Tossing a coin
Experiment - tossing a coin
Sample space – {H, T}
The event (E) that a Tail is obtained = {T}
2. Tossing two coins

Experiment - tossing two coins
Sample space – {HH, HT, TH, TT}
The event (E) that a Head and Tail is obtained ={ HT , TH}
3. Rolling a Die
Experiment - rolling a die
Sample space – {1 , 2, 3, 4, 5, 6}
The event (E) that an even number is obtained = { 2 , 4 , 6}
Activities
Activity 1 : Name Me!
Identify if the given statement is an example of an experiment, outcome, event, sample

point or probability.
1. a Head (H)
2. Head (H), Tail (T)
3. 75%
4. Queen of Diamond
5. Getting 2 in a roll of a die
6. Flipping a 5-peso coin
7. Guessing the marble of red marble in a box
8. The result of tossing two dice simultaneously
Page | 5
9. Choosing an ACE from a deck of standard cards
10. A chance process which leads to well-defined results
Activity 2: Roll a Die!
An experiment consists of rolling a die. List the sample points in each of the following:
1. The sample space
2. The event that an odd number shows up
3. The event that a number greater than 2 shows up
Activity 3: In a Box!
A box contains the letters of the English alphabet. A letter is picked at random from
the box. Write the sample points in each of the following.
1. The sample space

2. The event that a vowel is picked
3. The event of picking the first ten (10) letters of the alphabet
4. The event of picking the last ten (10) letters of the alphabet
Remember
A. The following are the basic concepts in probability:
1. Experiment is a chance process that leads to a well-defined result.
2. Outcome is the result of single trial of an experiment.
3. Sample space is the set of all the possible outcomes or sample points.
4. Sample point is just one of the possible outcomes.
5. Event is any set of one or more outcomes satisfying some given conditions.
Check Your Understanding

Read each statement carefully. Then, answer the question.
1. Althea is answering a 10-item quiz all of which are multiple choices. List the
