Question
Show by example that the statement “every planar graph has a vertex with degree less than or equal to 4” is false.
### Question 13:

**Show by example that the statement "every planar graph has a vertex with degree less than or equal to 4" is false.**

In this exercise, students are asked to find an example of a planar graph where each vertex has a degree greater than 4, thereby disproving the given statement. A planar graph is a graph that can be drawn on a plane without any edges crossing.
