\n" ); document.write( "This is one way to draw out the graph. The vertices are {N,O,P,Q,R,S,T,U}.
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "When we write something like edge {N,P}, we mean that there is a line segment or some kind of curve connecting N to P.\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "a. What is the degree of vertex Q ?\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The degree for vertex Q is 1 as there is only one connection from vertex Q to any other vertex. We have vertex Q connect to vertex O, as the edge {O,Q} shows.\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "b. What is the degree of vertex U?\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "The degree is 3. We have three edges connect vertex U to the vertices N, S and P.\r

\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "c. How many components does the graph have?\r
\n" ); document.write( "
\n" ); document.write( "\n" ); document.write( "There are 8 vertices and 9 edges, making a total of 8+9 = 17 components overall.
