Find the probability of a card that was a heart:

\frac{1}{4}

Find the probability of spade:

\frac{1}{4}

Since the events are disjoint, Use the formula

P (X_{1} \lor X_{2} \lor \dots \lor X_{k}) = P (X_{1}) + P (X_{2}) + \dots + P (X_{k})

= \frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{4}

\frac{1}{4} + \frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{2}

= \frac{1}{2}
