Question
For which values of $n$ is the complete graph on $n$ vertices a tree?
Step 1
A complete graph on n vertices has an edge between every pair of vertices. For n = 1, there is only one vertex and no edges, so it is a tree. For n = 2, there are two vertices and one edge between them, so it is a tree. For n = 3, there are three vertices and Show more…

Trees
Introduction to Trees
Prove that a connected graph with n vertices is a tree if and only if the sum of the degrees of the vertices is 2(n-1).
For which values of n are these graphs bipartite? $$ \begin{array}{llll}{\text { a) } K_{n}} & {\text { b) } C_{n}} & {\text { c) } W_{n}} & {\text { d) } Q_{n}}\end{array} $$
