1. Consider the graph G shown below.
(a). The chromatic (vertex colouring number) is x(G) =
(b). Explain briefly why x(G)- 1 colours are not enough:
B
(c). Give a colouring using x(G) colours starting with A-1,B-2,C-3:
(d). Consider a graph G with x(G)- k, such that removing any vertex v from G decreases the chromatic
number (G\v has chromatic number<k for all vertices u). We call such a graph colour critical. Is the graph
above colour critical? Explain.
