A dependent event is one that relies on something else to happen.
For instance with a mouse trap the trap closing "depends" on the trigger being activated.

Dependent events.
Independent
If two events are independent of one another, then the outcome of one event does not depend on the outcome of the other event. Example is flipping of two coins. The second coin is not dependent on the outcome of the first flip. But if you want to know if the two coins are the same (either both heads or both tails), then that outcome is dependent on the first coin and the second coin.
