Or Then, AB = ( 4 - 1)2 + (2 - 7 )2 = 9 + 25 = 34
Two dice can be thrown in 6 ´ 6 = 36 ways

Let E be the event of getting such numbers on

So, on applying Euclid’s division lemma to 616 So, ABCD is a rhombus.
and 32, we get
Now, AC = ( - 1 - 1)2 + ( - 1 - 7 )2
616 = ( 32 ´ 19) + 8
[Q dividend = divisor ´ quotient + remainder] = 4 + 64 = 68
Here, remainder = 8 ¹ 0, so new dividend is 32 and BD = ( - 4 - 4)2 + ( 4 - 2 )2
and new divisor is 8. (1)
= 64 + 4 = 68
So, again on applying Euclid’s division lemma to \ AC = BD
32 and 8, we get
Since, all its sides are equal and the diagonals
32 = ( 8 ´ 4) + 0 are equal, so it is a square.
Here, remainder is zero and the divisor is 8. Hence, ABCD is a square. (1)
So, HCF of 616 and 32 is 8. 2
