Graph G Analysis 04995C
1. **Problem:** Find the number of vertices, edges, and degree of each vertex in graph G.
2. **Step 1: Identify vertices and edges in G.**
- Vertices: a, b, c, d, e, f
- Edges: From description, G has a square formed by vertices a, b, f, e with edges (a-b), (b-f), (f-e), (e-a) plus a diagonal (b-f). Vertex c is isolated.
3. **Step 2: Count vertices and edges.**
- Number of vertices $= 6$
- Edges in square: 4
- Diagonal edge: 1
- Total edges $= 5$
4. **Step 3: Degree of each vertex.**
- $\deg(a) = 2$ (edges a-b, a-e)
- $\deg(b) = 3$ (edges b-a, b-f, diagonal b-f counted once)
- $\deg(c) = 0$ (isolated)
- $\deg(d)$ not mentioned, assume 0 or no edges
- $\deg(e) = 2$ (edges e-a, e-f)
- $\deg(f) = 3$ (edges f-b, f-e, diagonal b-f counted once)
5. **Step 4: Identify isolated and pendant vertices.**
- Isolated vertex: c (degree 0)
- Pendant vertices: vertices with degree 1, none here
6. **Step 5: Sum of degrees and verify with edges.**
- Sum degrees $= 2 + 3 + 0 + 0 + 2 + 3 = 10$
- Twice the number of edges $= 2 \times 5 = 10$
- Verified: sum of degrees equals twice the number of edges.
**Final answer:**
- Number of vertices: 6
- Number of edges: 5
- Degrees: $\deg(a)=2$, $\deg(b)=3$, $\deg(c)=0$, $\deg(d)=0$, $\deg(e)=2$, $\deg(f)=3$
- Isolated vertex: c
- No pendant vertices
