Transcribed Image Text:## 9.6 Prove or Disprove the Following Statements
(a) **Every subgraph of a planar graph is planar.**
(b) **Every subgraph of a nonplanar graph is nonplanar.**
(c) **If G is a nonplanar graph, then G contains a proper nonplanar subgraph.**
(d) **If G does not contain \( K_5 \) or \( K_{3,3} \) as a subgraph, then G is planar.**
**Explanation of Terms:**
- A **planar graph** is a graph that can be embedded in the plane, meaning it can be drawn on a plane without any edges crossing.
- A **subgraph** is a graph formed from a subset of the vertices and edges of another graph.
- \( K_5 \) is the complete graph on 5 vertices, and \( K_{3,3} \) is the complete bipartite graph with partitions of 3 vertices. These are known for their properties related to planarity (Kuratowski's theorem).
