Transcribed Image Text:14. Give a careful proof that the graph below is not planar.
▼ Hint.
The girth of the graph is 4.
15. Explain why we cannot use the same sort of proof we did in Exercise 2.3.14
to prove that the graph below is not planar. Then explain how you know the
graph is not planar anyway.
▼ Hint.
What has happened to the girth? Careful: we have a different number of edges
as well. Better check Euler's formula.
