Question 1

What is the maximum number of edges that can be coloured with the same colour in an even vertex graph?

  • n
  • n/2 + 1
  • n - 1

💡 Hint: Remember how the count of edges relates to vertices.

Question 2

Is it possible to colour an odd vertex graph with fewer than n colours?

  • True
  • False

💡 Hint: Consider how edges would conflict.

Question 1

Given a complete graph with 9 vertices, calculate the minimum number of colours needed for a proper edge colouring and justify your reasoning.

💡 Hint: Visualize how edges conflict with one another.

Question 2

Create a colour assignment for a complete graph with 6 vertices, ensuring all edges are coloured distinctly. Provide a visual representation.

💡 Hint: Draw it out to see the conflicts.
