Graph
In a graph that has loops and multigraph, the degree
of a vertex is determined in the same way as simple
graphs. Directed graph Undirected graph

A, B, C and D are four vertices of a graph. Without
using graph, determine the degree for each of the
vertices with the following edges. D D
(a) {(A, B), (A, D), (B, D), (C, D), (C, D), (C, D)}
(b) {(A, D), (A, D), (B, B), (B, C), (B, C), (B, D), (C, C)} Each edge is marked Each edge is not

(b) Vertex A : 2 edges {(A, D), (A, D)}
º Degree (A) = 2 1. For the directed graph, (A, A) represents a directed
loop.
