**Question 4: Planarity of \( K_{3,3} \)**

In answering the following questions, you will demonstrate that \( K_{3,3} \) is not planar. Consider, for the sake of contradiction, that \( K_{3,3} \) is planar and has a planar representation.

**(a)** Since \( K_{3,3} \) is assumed to have a planar representation, \( K_{3,3} \) has faces. How many faces does \( K_{3,3} \) have? Explain.

**(b)** \( K_{3,3} \) will have no face of length 3. Why?

**(c)** Based on your answer to (b), \( K_{3,3} \) has at least how many edges? Explain.

Expert Solution
Step 1

In the question first, we have to show whether K3, 3 is a planar graph or not. Also, it is asked it has how many faces. Also it shall have no face of length 3.

Also, we have to show it has how many edges. First we shall know what a k3, 3 is.

k3, 3 has 6 vertices and 9 edges. A graph G is planar if it can be drawn in the plane with its edges intersecting at their vertices only. One such graph is called an embedding graph of the line. A particular planar representation of a planar graph is called a map. A map divides the plane into a number of region or planes ( one of them infinite).
