In network analysis, what does a graph represent?

  1. Nodes and edges

  2. Vertices and arcs

  3. Points and lines

  4. None of the above


Correct Option: A
Explanation:

In network analysis, a graph is represented by nodes (vertices) and edges (arcs).

Which graph theory concept is used in scheduling problems?

  1. Eulerian path

  2. Hamiltonian cycle

  3. Shortest path

  4. Minimum spanning tree


Correct Option: B
Explanation:
