A tree with n vertices has (n-1) edges: Proof

A tree with n vertices has (n-1) edges. For example, a tree with 5 vertices should have 5-1=4 edges. In this post, we prove that a tree contains (n-1) edges if it has n vertices. A tree of n vertices has n-1 edges Theorem: Show that a tree with n vertices has (n-1) edges. Proof: … Read more
