For a given graph G having v vertices and e edges which is connected and has no cycles, which of the following statements is true?
(A)
v= e-1
(B)
e= v-2
(C)
v=e+1
(D)
None
Answer: (C)
Explanation:
For a given graph G is connected, has no cycles (also called acyclic), and has v – 1 edges. Since G is connected and has no cycles, and the number of edges (e) is v – 1, it satisfies the definition of a tree. Trees are fundamental data structures in graph theory and have important applications in computer science and various other fields.
The number of edges e= v-1 or v= e+1.
Hence Option(C) is the correct answer.
