1. For the following, each relation R is defined on the set A. Determine if R is a tree, if it is, find the
root.
a) A= {a, b, c, d, e}; R = {(a, d), (b, c), (c, a), (d, e)}
b) A = {a, b, c, d, e, f); R = {(a, b), (c, e), (f, a), (f, c), (f, d)}
c) A= {1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6); R = {(1, 1), (2, 1), (2, 3), (3, 4), (4, 5), (4, 6)}
d) A= (t, u, v, w, x, y, z}; R = {(t, u), (u, w), (u, x), (u, v), (v, z), (v, y)}
