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.
