What is a graph formally defined as in graph theory?
G = (V, E)
Vertices in a graph are also called nodes.
True
What does it mean if two vertices are adjacent in a graph?
They are connected by an edge
In an undirected graph, edges represent
two-way
relationships between vertices.
What type of relationships do edges in a directed graph represent?
One-way relationships
In a directed graph, edges have a specific
direction
In a directed graph, edges represent one-way relationships between
vertices
What type of graph has no cycles?
Tree
What is the term for two vertices connected by an edge?
Adjacent
What are vertices in a graph also called?
Nodes
What are edges in a graph?
Connections between vertices
What does the degree of a vertex in a graph refer to?
Number of edges connected
Cycles in graphs indicate the presence of redundant
connections
Match the graph component with its definition:
Path ↔️ Sequence of connected vertices
Cycle ↔️ Path that starts and ends at the same vertex
Tree ↔️ Connected graph with no cycles
Match the graph type with its description:
Bipartite Graph ↔️ Vertices divided into two disjoint sets
Directed Graph ↔️ Edges have a specific direction
Tree ↔️ Connected graph with no cycles
Road networks are examples of
Eulerian graphs
.
True
Euler's formula for planar graphs states:
v
- e + f = 2
True
For a planar graph, Euler's formula states that V - E + F =
2
Isomorphic graphs must have the same number of vertices.
True
Steps to determine if two graphs are isomorphic:
1️⃣ Check if the number of vertices is the same
2️⃣ Check if the number of edges is the same
3️⃣ Verify that the degree sequences are identical
4️⃣ Establish a bijective function between vertices
5️⃣ Confirm that adjacency is preserved
Match the graph property with its definition:
Vertices ↔️ The individual points in a graph
Edges ↔️ The lines connecting vertices
Match the graph type with its property:
Directed graph ↔️ Edges have a specific direction
Undirected graph ↔️ Edges have no direction
Edges in a directed graph represent one-way relationships between
vertices
True
What does the symbol 'E' represent in graph theory?
Edges
The number of edges connected to a vertex is called its
degree
Trees are graphs with no
cycles
Bipartite graphs are used to model problems like job-applicant
matching
Match the graph type with its description:
Bipartite Graph ↔️ Vertices divided into two disjoint sets
Directed Graph ↔️ Edges have a specific direction
Undirected Graph ↔️ Edges have no direction
Tree ↔️ Connected graph with no cycles
What is the defining property of a Hamiltonian graph?
Closed path visits each vertex once
In a graph,
V
represents the set of
vertices
The number of edges connected to a vertex is called its
degree
Edges in an undirected graph have a specific direction.
False
Edges in an undirected graph represent two-way relationships between
vertices
What type of relationship do edges in a directed graph represent?
One-way
What is an example of a system that can be modeled using an undirected graph?
Social network
Edges in a
graph
connect vertices to each other.
True
In an undirected graph, edges represent two-way relationships between
vertices
What is a graph in mathematical terms?
Vertices and edges
Two vertices are adjacent if they are connected by an
edge
A cycle in a graph is a path where the first and last vertices are the same.
