Math Problem Statement

List a cycle containing A: Note a cycle should be written in the format A-B-C-A indicating following the edge from A to B then the edge from B to C and finally the edge from C back to A. This is not auto graded.

List a cycle containing A: Note a cycle should be written in the format A-B-C-A indicating following the edge from A to B then the edge from B to C and finally the edge from C back to A.

Solution

To identify a cycle containing vertex AA in this graph, we look for a path that begins and ends at AA while passing through at least two other distinct vertices.

One possible cycle containing AA is: ABCDAA - B - C - D - A

This cycle goes from AA to BB, then BB to CC, CC to DD, and finally returns to AA.

  1. Can you list a different cycle that includes vertex AA?
  2. How many distinct cycles are there in this graph?
  3. What is the degree of vertex AA in this graph?
  4. Can you identify a cycle that contains vertex EE?
  5. Is this graph connected, meaning there is a path between any two vertices?

Tip: When looking for cycles in a graph, start at a vertex and trace paths that return to the starting point without revisiting edges.
