Transcribed Image Text:**Question 7: Euler Trail Exploration**
**Problem Statement:**
Find whether the graph below has an Euler trail, and if it does, determine and outline such a trail.
**Graph Description:**
The graph consists of two main parts:
1. **Square Subgraph:**
- Vertices: \( a, b, c, u \)
- Edges: \( (a, b), (b, c), (c, u), (u, a) \)
- This forms a square with a center vertex \( u \).
2. **Complex Polygonal Structure:**
- Vertices: \( d, e, f, w, g, h \)
- Edges: \( (d, f), (f, e), (e, w), (w, g), (g, h), (h, f) \)
- This forms a diamond shape, anchored to the vertex \( u \) from the square subgraph, creating a connecting \( (u, f) \) edge.
**Analysis for Euler Trail:**
- An Euler trail exists in a graph if it has exactly zero or two vertices with odd degrees.
- By analyzing vertex degrees:
- Odd degree vertices: \( a (3), e (3), g (3) \)
- Even degree vertices: \( b (2), c (2), u (4), d (2), f (4), h (2), w (2) \)
The graph has three vertices with an odd degree \( (a, e, g) \). For it to have an Euler trail, there should be exactly two odd-degree vertices. Therefore, no Euler trail exists in this graph.
