Let G be a connected simple graph with n vertices and m edges. Prove that G contains at least m−n+ 1 different subgraphs which are polygons (=circuits). Note: Different polygons can have edges in common. For instance, a square with a diagonal edge has three different polygons (the square and two different triangles) even though every pair of polygons have at least one edge in common.

In lecture, we proved that any tree with n vertices must have n − 1 edges. Here, you will prove the converse of this statement. Prove that if G = (V, E) is a connected graph such that |E| = |V| − 1, then G is a tree.
