NCERT Solutions for Class 11 Maths Chapter 16 Probability

In our previous classes, we studied the classical theory of probability. In this chapter, we will study the statistical approach of probability and the axiomatic approach of probability. To understand these approaches we must know about some basic terms like events, random experiment, sample space, etc. In this chapter, there is a total of 44 questions in 3 exercises and also for the students to understand this chapter in the better way 17 solved examples are given in the NCERT textbook. The NCERT Solutions for Class 11 Maths Chapter 16 Probability are solved by our maths experts. These NCERT solutions help students in their preparation of CBSE class 11 final examination as well as in the various competitive exams like JEE Main, BITSAT etc.

The NCERT Class 11 Maths Chapter 16 Probability is an important chapter for students. In previous classes, we already study the concept of probability like it is a measure of uncertainty of the various phenomenon in the random experiment. We learned that the probability of getting an odd number in throwing a die is 3/6 or 1/2. In this case, the total number of outcomes is six and outcomes are 1,2, 3, 4, 5 and 6. The total number of outcomes in favour of the event of 'getting an odd number' is three and outcomes are 1, 3, 5. To find the probability of the event, we find the ratio of the total number of outcomes in favour of the event, to the total number of outcomes. This type of theory of probability is called classical theory. In NCERT Class 11 Maths Chapter 16 Probability we will learn how to find the probability on the basis of collected data and observations. This is known as the statistical approach of probability.

## The important features of NCERT Class 11 Maths Chapter 16 Probability are as follows:

• Sample points: Elements of sample space
• Sample space: The set of all possible outcomes
• Event: A subset of the sample space
• Sure event: The whole sample space
• Impossible event: The empty set
• Complimentary event or ‘not event’: The set A′ or S – A
• Event A and B: The set A ∩ B
• Event A or B: The set A ∪ B
• Event A and not B: The set A – B
• Mutually exclusive event: A and B are mutually exclusive if A∩B = φ
