Pre-Algebra Kansas City Minneapolis Pittsburgh Denver Houston A new airline may begin by offering service to only a few cities. Suppose a small airline has flights between only the cities shown. In mathematics, there are graphs of equations, bar graphs, and various other types of graphs. The representation of the airline’s routes is a type of graph Networks and Euler Circuits

Pre-Algebra In a branch of mathematics called graph theory, a graph is a network of points and line segments or arcs that connect the points. The points are called vertices. The line segments or arcs joining the vertices are called edges. A path is a way to get from one vertex to another along one or more edges. A graph is a connected graph if there is a path between every vertex and every other vertex. The degree of a vertex is the number of edges touching that vertex Networks and Euler Circuits

Find the degree of each vertex, and determine whether each graph is connected.

Pre-Algebra A circuit is a path that ends at the same vertex at which it began and doesn’t go through any edge more than once. An Euler circuit (pronounced oiler) is a circuit that goes through every edge of a connected graph Networks and Euler Circuits

Pre-Algebra Every vertex in an Euler circuit has an even degree. To understand why this is true, suppose a vertex has an odd degree. In an Euler circuit, two edges are required each time a path enters and exits the vertex. A vertex with an odd degree would have an edge that would be traveled twice or not at all Networks and Euler Circuits

Pre-Algebra One famous problem in graph theory is the Konigsberg Bridge problem. The goal is to find a path that crosses every bridge only once and returns to the starting point. Solving the Konigsberg Bridge problem is equivalent to finding an Euler circuit in the graph. ¨ ¨ 14-6 Networks and Euler Circuits
