It looks like you provided a list of terms related to probability and statistics. Below is a brief explanation of each term:

1. **Event**: A specific outcome or a set of outcomes from a random experiment.

2. **Probability**: A measure of the likelihood that a particular event will occur, typically expressed as a number between 0 (impossible event) and 1 (certain event).

3. **Certain**: An event that is guaranteed to happen has a probability of 1.

4. **Impossible**: An event that cannot happen has a probability of 0.

5. **Sample Space**: The set of all possible outcomes of a random experiment.

6. **Outcome**: A single possible result of an experiment.

7. **Independent Events**: Two events are independent if the occurrence of one does not affect the occurrence of the other.

8. **Dependent Events**: Two events are dependent if the occurrence of one event affects the occurrence of the other.

9. **Mutually Exclusive**: Two events are mutually exclusive if they cannot occur at the same time (i.e., the occurrence of one event excludes the possibility of the other).

10. **Complement**: The complement of an event A is the set of outcomes in the sample space that are not in A. The probability of the complement of A is equal to 1 minus the probability of A.

11. **Equally Likely**: When all possible outcomes of an experiment have the same probability of occurring.

12. **Theoretical Probability**: The probability of an event based on the reasoning behind probability, usually calculated using the formula: \( P(A) = \frac{\text{number of favorable outcomes}}{\text{total number of outcomes}} \).

13. **Experimental Probability**: The probability of an event determined by conducting experiments or trials and observing the outcomes.
