Problem

A letter is chosen at random from the English alphabet. a. (i) Construct two non-empty events CC and DD that are complementary. List each event as a subset of the sample space and explain why they are complementary. b. (ii) Construct two non-empty events EE and FF that are mutually exclusive but not exhaustive. Write the sets explicitly and justify both properties. c. (iii) Construct three events G,HG, H and KK that are exhaustive and pairwise mutually exclusive. List the subsets chosen and explain your reasoning.
