2 marksA simply connected graph is a connected graph in which any two vertices are directly connected by at most one arc and no vertex is directly connected to itself.
Given that a simply connected graph has exactly four vertices,
(i) write down the minimum number of arcs it can have,
(ii) write down the maximum number of arcs it can have.
