  3. They are always perfectly balanced
  4. They are faster for search operations than Red-Black trees

Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following statements about AVL trees is true?
  • Step 1: Understand what an AVL tree is. It is a type of binary search tree that maintains balance.
  • Step 2: Know that balance in an AVL tree means the heights of the two child subtrees of any node differ by at most one.
  • Step 3: Realize that when you insert a new node into an AVL tree, it can become unbalanced.
  • Step 4: Learn that to fix the unbalance after an insertion, you may need to perform rotations (like left or right rotations).
  • Step 5: Compare AVL trees with Red-Black trees. AVL trees are more strictly balanced than Red-Black trees, meaning they have a tighter height difference requirement.
