Question

Recall that a graph is bipartite if the vertices can be divided into two sets; for convenience let's call them blue vertices and red vertices, such that every edge connects a blue and a red vertex.  

Prove that if a connected bipartite graph has a Hamiltonian circuit, then the numbers of red and blue vertices are equal.
