13. Given the graph List all the even vertices. Please see atachment.

OpenStudy (anonymous):

OpenStudy (amistre64):

nothing appears on my screen

OpenStudy (anonymous):

I just opend it. so it does work.

OpenStudy (amistre64):

it opens for you, but not for me ....

OpenStudy (anonymous):

you don't have adobe 9 on your computer?

OpenStudy (amistre64):

prolly not, its a public library computer...

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ah

OpenStudy (anonymous):

try now

OpenStudy (amistre64):

that one works :)

OpenStudy (amistre64):

now just have to determine what constitutes an 'even' vertice

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok. this is where i don't understand

OpenStudy (amistre64):

me either yet, i think it means that the degree of the vertex is an even number, but gotta read a little more

OpenStudy (amistre64):

is this all the information that is given?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

vertices with even degree are even vertices, also those where a loop exists

OpenStudy (amistre64):

how can you determine an even degree vertice with no numbers present?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

A, B, D and E

OpenStudy (anonymous):

no of edges leaving a vertex is the degree

OpenStudy (anonymous):

its an undirected graph

OpenStudy (anonymous):

what do you mean uzma

OpenStudy (amistre64):

ahhh... so three lines connected is an odd then right?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yes

OpenStudy (anonymous):

look ...there is a loop at vertex A, a loop contributes 2 to the degree, so A is an even vertex

OpenStudy (anonymous):

so then it woud be A B D and E like you said then?

OpenStudy (anonymous):

likewise there r 2 edges incident at B,degree 2 again even

OpenStudy (anonymous):

yeah

OpenStudy (anonymous):

ok. i get it now thank you.
