Answer:
(a) Option A. independent
(b) 
Step-by-step explanation:
Two events A and B are considered dependent if the occurrence of one affects the probability of occurrence of another.
In this case, the events are independent because the birth of a girl or a boy does not affect the probability of obtaining a 1 by throwing a 16-sided die.
In the same way, throwing a die and obtaining the number 1 does not affect the probability that a baby is a girl or a boy.
When two events are independent then

The probability that a baby is a girl is

The probability of obtaining a 1 when casting a 16-sided die is:

Then:


By Pythagorean theorem,
a^2+b^2=c^2
c is the longest side of the triangle
a and b are the remaining sides
Answer:
C
