Correct me if I don't understand this correctly.. your example of a complimentary event is also an example of mutually exclusive events and equal likelihood event. Correct?
Definitely yes, its also an example of equal likely events and mutually exclusive events. BUT there's kind of a difference between mutually exclusive and complimentary events that you might need to take note of, if A and B are complimentary, P(A) +P(B) = 1, since one of the events must occur if the other doesn't, but if they are mutually exclusive, P(A) +P(B) is not necessarily equal to one since there's a possibility that none of them occurs. In summary, all complimentary events are mutually exclusive as well, but the reverse is not necessarily true.

No wonder I never knew about that. You explained it good! Thanks
This was actually helpful for understanding some statements but if possible could you explain what *an event* is? This still confuses me
