Question 1 of 10
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.

Question 2 of 10
Assertion: A larger and more representative sample generally gives greater confidence in an estimate for the whole population.
Reason: Increasing the sample size guarantees that the sample proportion will be exactly equal to the population proportion.

Question 9 of 10
Assertion: A point is chosen uniformly at random inside a \(3\text{ m}\times2\text{ m}\) rectangle containing a circle of diameter \(1\text{ m}\). The probability that the point lies inside the circle is \(\frac{\pi}{12}\).
Reason: For a uniformly selected point, the required probability is \[ \frac{\text{area of favourable region}}{\text{area of total region}}. \]

Question 10 of 10
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.
