Let's analyze the four graphs \( G_1 \), \( G_2 \), \( G_3 \), and \( G_4 \), and the statements provided to determine which are true.

### Step-by-step analysis:
1. **Graph \( G_1 \)**:
   - \( G_1 \) looks like a **3D cube**. It is a regular graph with 8 vertices and 12 edges. Each vertex has degree 3.

2. **Graph \( G_2 \)**:
   - \( G_2 \) is a **2D square**. It seems to be a **planar projection of \( G_1 \)** (another view of the cube). It has the same number of vertices (8) and edges (12), and each vertex still has degree 3.

3. **Graph \( G_3 \)**:
   - \( G_3 \) is a **complete bipartite graph** \( K_{4,4} \) (a bipartite graph where two sets of 4 vertices are fully connected). It has 8 vertices and 16 edges, and each vertex has degree 4.

4. **Graph \( G_4 \)**:
   - \( G_4 \) is a **planar graph** that appears to be **another projection of \( G_1 \)**. This projection is a more compressed version of \( G_1 \), with all vertices and edges preserved.

### Analyzing the statements:
- **\( G_1 \) and \( G_2 \) are the same graph**:
   - These graphs are not identical in their drawing, but they **represent the same 3D cube**. Hence, **this is false** since they are drawn differently.

- **\( G_1 \) and \( G_4 \) are isomorphic**:
   - \( G_4 \) is a different projection of \( G_1 \) but has the same structure and connections, making the two **isomorphic**.

- **\( G_1 \) and \( G_4 \) are the same graph**:
   - \( G_4 \) is another view of \( G_1 \), but it's drawn differently, so they are **not identical** but are isomorphic.

- **\( G_1 \) and \( G_2 \) are isomorphic**:
   - Since both represent the cube in different projections, they are **isomorphic**.

- **\( G_1 \) and \( G_3 \) are isomorphic**:
   - \( G_1 \) and \( G_3 \) are not isomorphic. \( G_1 \) represents a 3D cube with 12 edges, while \( G_3 \) is a bipartite graph with 16 edges and different vertex degrees.

### Conclusion:
- **True statements**:
  1. \( G_1 \) and \( G_2 \) are isomorphic.
  2. \( G_1 \) and \( G_4 \) are isomorphic.

### Relative Questions:
1. What does it mean for two graphs to be isomorphic?
2. How can you determine if two graphs are isomorphic?
3. What are the characteristics of a bipartite graph like \( G_3 \)?
4. What is the difference between graph isomorphism and identical graphs?
5. How do planar and non-planar graphs differ?

### Tip:
When checking for graph isomorphism, focus on matching vertices and edges while ignoring the visual layout. The connections and structure are what matter most.

Here are some graphs on the vertex set V = {a,b,c,d,e,f,g,h}. Which of the following statements are true about the graphs G_1, G_2, G_3, and G_4?

This problem involves determining graph isomorphism between different graphs, G_1, G_2, G_3, and G_4, from a given vertex set. The graphs include examples of 3D cubes, planar projections, and bipartite graphs. Suitable for undergraduate students learning about graph theory.
