Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which of the following is true about the height of a binary tree?
  • Step 1: Understand what a binary tree is. A binary tree is a structure where each node has at most two children, referred to as the left child and the right child.
  • Step 2: Identify the root of the binary tree. The root is the topmost node in the tree.
  • Step 3: Define what a leaf node is. A leaf node is a node that does not have any children.
  • Step 4: Visualize the longest path from the root to a leaf node. This path consists of nodes connected by edges.
  • Step 5: Count the edges in this longest path. The height of the binary tree is the total number of edges you counted.
