A graph becomes a tree when it is connected and acyclic, meaning there are no loops or cycles present. Additionally, for a graph with ( n ) vertices to be a tree, it must contain exactly ( n-1 ) edges. This structure ensures that there is exactly one path between any two vertices, fulfilling the properties of a tree.
Proving this is simple. First, you prove that G has a spanning tree, it is connected, which is pretty obvious - a spanning tree itself is already a connected graph on the vertex set V(G), thus G which contains it as a spanning sub graph is obviously also connected. Second, you prove that if G is connected, it has a spanning tree. If G is a tree itself, then it must "contain" a spanning tree. If G is connected and not a tree, then it must have at least one cycle. I don't know if you know this or not, but there is a theorem stating that an edge is a cut-edge if and only if it is on no cycle (a cut-edge is an edge such that if you take it out, the graph becomes disconnected). Thus, you can just keep taking out edges from cycles in G until all that is left are cut-gees. Since you did not take out any cut-edges, the graph is still connected; since all that is left are cut-edges, there are no cycles. A connected graph with no cycles is a tree. Thus, G contains a spanning tree. Therefore, a graph G is connected if and only if it has a spanning tree!
As the slope get closer to zero, the graph becomes close to horizontal.
A tree in which one vertex called the root, is distinguished from all the others is called a rooted tree.
In graph theory, a tree is a connected, acyclic graph, meaning it has no cycles and there is exactly one path between any two vertices. A tree with ( n ) vertices has exactly ( n - 1 ) edges. Trees are often used to represent hierarchical structures, such as organizational charts or family trees. Additionally, a special type of tree called a "rooted tree" has one designated vertex as the root, from which all other vertices can be reached.
As the slope gets bigger the graph becomes closer to vertical - from bottom left to top right.
Tree (since tree is connected acyclic graph)
true
Yes, every tree ia a bipartite graph (just see wikipedia).
A tree is a connected graph in which only 1 path exist between any two vertices of the graph i.e. if the graph has no cycles. A spanning tree of a connected graph G is a tree which includes all the vertices of the graph G.There can be more than one spanning tree for a connected graph G.
Every tree is a connected directed acylic graph.

To find a spanning tree in a given graph, you can use algorithms like Prim's or Kruskal's. These algorithms help identify the minimum weight edges that connect all the vertices in the graph without forming any cycles. The resulting tree will be a spanning tree of the original graph.
Yes. A graph is bipartite if it contains no odd cycles. Since a tree contains no cycles at all, it is bipartite.
The minimum spanning tree of an undirected graph g is the smallest tree that connects all the vertices in the graph without forming any cycles. It is a subgraph of the original graph that includes all the vertices and has the minimum possible total edge weight.
Tree is directed, cycle-less, connected graph.
A spanning tree is a tree associated with a network. All the nodes of the graph appear on the tree once. A minimum spanning tree is a spanning tree organized so that the total edge weight between nodes is minimized.
