Suppose that \( e \sim f \) but \( f \not\sim g \) (i.e., \( f \) is not homotopic to \( g \)). Is it possible that \( g \sim e \)? Explain your answer. [Hint: Assume \( g \sim e \). What does this imply?]
Expert Solution

Step 1
e is homotopic to g and f is not homotopic to g
homotopic relation is an equivalence relation
here we have to check whether e is homotopic to g or not
Step by step
