Question 1

The postorder traversal of a binary tree is 8, 9, 6, 7, 4, 5, 2, 3, 1. The inorder traversal of the same tree is 8, 6, 9, 4, 7, 2, 5, 1, 3. The height of a tree is the length of the longest path from the root to any leaf. The height of the binary tree above is _______.

A	1
B	2
C	3
D	4

Question 1 Explanation:

Post – 8 9 6 7 4 5 2 3 1
In – 8 6 9 4 7 2 5 1 3
Post: 8 9 6 7 4 5 2 3 1→(root)
In: 8 6 9 4 7 2 5→(left subtree) 13→(right subtree)

Question 2

Let T be a tree with 10 vertices. The sum of the degrees of all the vertices in T is _________.

A	18
B	19
C	20
D	21

Data-Structures Trees Gate 2017 set-01

Question 2 Explanation:

Sum of degrees of all vertices is double the number of edges.
A tree, with 10 vertices, consists n - 1, i.e. 10 - 1 = 9 edges.
Sum of degrees of all vertices = 2(#edges)
= 2(9)
= 18

Question 3

The number of ways in which the numbers 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 can be inserted in an empty binary search tree, such that the resulting tree has height 6, is _________.

Note: The height of a tree with a single node is 0.

A	64
B	65
C	66
D	67

Data-Structures Trees GATE 2016 set-2

Question 3 Explanation:

To get the tree of height 6, every level should contain only 1 node.
So to get such tree at each level we should have either maximum or minimum element from remaining numbers till that level. So no. of binary search tree possible is,
1^st level - 2 (maximum or minimum)
⇓
2^nd level - 2
⇓
3^rd level - 2
⇓
4^th level - 2
⇓
5^th level - 2
⇓
6^th level - 2
⇓
7^th level - 2
= 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 2 × 1
= 2⁶
= 64

Question 4

The height of a tree is the length of the longest root-to-leaf path in it. The maximum and minimum number of nodes in a binary tree of height 5 are

A	63 and 6, respectively
B	64 and 5, respectively
C	32 and 6, respectively
D	31 and 5, respectively

Data-Structures Trees GATE 2015 (Set-01)

Question 4 Explanation:

Maximum number of nodes in a binary tree of height h is,
2^h+1 - 1 = 2⁵⁺¹ - 1 = 63
Minimum number of nodes in a binary tree of height h is
h + 1 = 5 + 1 = 6

Question 5

Consider the following 2-3-4 tree (i.e., B-tree with a minimum degree of two) in which each data item is a letter. The usual alphabetical ordering of letters is used in constructing the tree.

What is the result of inserting G in the above tree ?

A
B
C
D	None of the above

Question 5 Explanation:

Given Tree is

Insert G at root level:

Question 6

A binary tree T has n leaf nodes. The number of nodes of degree 2 in T is:

A	log₂ n
B	n - 1
C	n
D	2ⁿ

Question 6 Explanation:

A binary tree is a tree data structure in which each node has atmost two child nodes.
The no. of subtrees of a node is called the degree of the node. In a binary tree, all nodes have degree 0, 1 and 2.
The degree of a tree is the maximum degree of a node in the tree. A binary tree is of degree 2.
The number of nodes of degree 2 in T is "n - 1".

Question 7

A	4
B	5
C	6
D	7
E	Both A and D

Data-Structures Trees Gate-1992

Question 7 Explanation:

Case 1:

Where L is leaf node.
So, no. of internal node is 4.
Case 2:

Where L is leaf node.
So, no. of internal node is 7.
