Answer:
It depends what you mean by "Probability of impossible event". This is an ambiguous phrase which would be interpreted in several different ways. It can be 0 or it can be 1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
It is not known ahead of time if an event is possible or impossible and you are asking what are the chances it may be impossible. For example, flipping a coin so it lands on its edge. Some people think this is impossible since they seem to always say 50% chance heads and 50% tails but that is wrong cuz it depends where it "lands". I've seen a coin land on its side and stay there. What if you flip it and it lands in soft sand for example?

But , probability of an event + probability of impossible event = 1
right??
so, can probability of impossible event be = 1 - probability of an event???
Yes, but still it is an ambiguous phrase. You can find the probability of an impossible event by what you said. But from what i learned impossible event is something that has little to no chance of happening. Those event are considered as ambiguous events in that case the probability will be either 0 or 1/2. The way you did is also correct. You can do that way too but under some circumstances.
