Expert Solution
Step 1
  • For a tree to be a valid AVL tree balancing factors of each of its nodes need to be either -1,0 or 1.
  • Balancing factor = Height of the left subtree - the height of the right subtree.
  • Minimum no. of nodes in an AVL tree of height h is defined by a recursive relation :

            f(h) = f(h-1) + f(h-2) + 1, and f(1) = 0 , f(2) = 1 where h represents the height of AVL Tree.
