How do you determine whether or not a graph is traversable?

Short Answer

Expert verified
A graph is traversable if all vertices have an even degree (Eulerian graph), or if there are exactly two vertices with odd degrees (semi-Eulerian); start at one odd-degree vertex and end at the other. In cases where more than two vertices have odd degrees, the graph is not traversable.

Step by step solution

01

Understand traversability

A graph is called traversable if it is possible to navigate through the graph, visiting each edge exactly once. This is linked to the property of Eulerian graphs (named after Leonard Euler), which are graphs where each vertex has an even degree.
02

Calculate the degree of vertices

To determine whether a graph is traversable you should determine the degree of each vertex. The degree of a vertex is the number of edges that are incident to (or meet at) that vertex. This can be done by examining the graph and counting the number of edges that each vertex has.
03

Determine traversability

A graph is traversable if all vertices in the graph have an even degree (Eulerian graph). However, if exactly two vertices have odd degrees and the rest have even degrees, the graph is semi-Eulerian, meaning it is traversable but one must start at one of the odd-degree vertices and end at the other. If more than two vertices have odd degrees, the graph is not traversable.

In the 1939 movie The Wizard of \(\mathrm{Oz}_{z}\), upon being presented with a Th.D. (Doctor of Thinkology), the Scarecrow proudly exclaims, "The sum of the square roots of any two sides of an isosceles triangle is equal to the square root of the remaining side." Did the Scarecrow get the Pythagorean Theorem right? In particular, describe four errors in the Scarecrow's statement.

What are supplementary angles? Describe how to find the measure of an angle's supplement.

A wheelchair ramp is to be built beside the steps to the campus library. Find the angle of elevation of the 23 -foot ramp, to the nearest tenth of a degree, if its final height is 6 feet.

Stonehenge, the famous "stone circle" in England, was built between 2750 B.C. and 1300 B.C. using solid stone blocks weighing over 99,000 pounds each. It required 550 people to pull a single stone up a ramp inclined at a \(9^{\circ}\) angle. Describe how right triangle trigonometry can be used to determine the distance the 550 workers had to drag a stone in order to raise it to a height of 30 feet.

If the ratio of the corresponding sides of two similar triangles is 1 to \(1\left(\frac{1}{1}\right)\), what must be true about the triangles?
