Question 1 of 7
Assertion: If a fair coin gives \(8\) heads in \(10\) tosses, this result alone does not prove that the coin is biased.
Reason: Experimental probability may differ noticeably from theoretical probability when the number of trials is small, and it generally tends to move closer to the theoretical probability as the number of trials increases.
Select one option. Answers are shown after the test.
Question 2 of 7
Assertion: A fair die is rolled \(12\) times and shows \(3\) on \(3\) trials. Its experimental probability of showing \(3\) is \(\frac14\), while its theoretical probability is \(\frac16\).
Reason: For a fair die, experimental probability and theoretical probability must be equal in every set of trials.
Select one option. Answers are shown after the test.
Question 3 of 7
Assertion: If three coins are tossed and only the number of heads is recorded, the sample space is \[ \{0,1,2,3\}. \]
Reason: Each of the three coins has two possible faces, heads and tails.
Select one option. Answers are shown after the test.
Question 4 of 7
Assertion: When two fair coins are tossed, the probability of obtaining at least one head is \(\frac34\).
Reason: The probability of obtaining heads on each individual toss is \(\frac12\).

Question 5 of 7
Assertion: The probability of obtaining an even number on a fair six-sided die is \(\frac12\).
Reason: The die has three favourable outcomes, \(2,4,6\), among six equally likely outcomes.

Question 6 of 7
Assertion (A): The probability that a randomly chosen non-leap year has exactly 53 Sundays is \( \frac{1}{7} \).
Reason (R): A non-leap year has 365 days, which consists of 52 complete weeks and 2 extra days.

Question 7 of 7
r = 2mSide = 4m

Assertion (A): A dart is thrown at random and hits the square board above. The probability of the dart landing inside the yellow circle is \( \frac{\pi}{4} \).

Reason (R): The probability is the ratio of the Area of the circle (4π sq m) to the Area of the square (16 sq m).
