Hey guys, I could use some advice. I'm sitting a Maths exam tomorrow and one of the modules is on graph theory.
I've been doing revision problems from past papers, but they don't release the solutions. Most of it is fine, but what I require help with is this:
For a connected simple graph G, prove that for any two edges of G there is a spanning tree that includes both edges.
I've had a go at it but my attempt at a proof didn't even convince myself. I would really appreciate any help to find a reasonably elegant and decisive proof.
