In summary, the conversation is about drawing a complete graph with 5 vertices, denoted by K5. The question is whether the graph should be drawn using medium or large squares and whether it should be drawn vertically or horizontally. The expert suggests simply drawing a 'pentagon' with any two vertices connected by a line. The expert also clarifies that the question does not specify drawing a pentagon and provides two different ways of drawing the graph, one using a pentagon and the other horizontally.

Consider the complete graph with 5 vertices, denoted by K5.

A. Draw the graph

The question I have when drawing this graph with 5 vertices and denote by K5, should I draw, medium, or large squares? Should I draw the graph vertically or horizontally or which would be easier when I have to make sure it has 5 vertices (denoted by K5)?

What you are required to do is simply draw a 'pentagon' with any two vetices connected by a 'line'. I do not understand what you mean by drawing $K_5$ vertically (or horizontally ). Can you please elaborate on this?

Caffeinemachine: In response to your questions, I am trying to see what exactly is easier when I draw this graph and to help me understand it as to me reading it. Are you stating that I am suppose to draw a pentagon? I ask this because the question doesn't specify or state that. It states the following:

A.) Consider the complete graph with 5 vertices, denoted by K5. Draw the graph.

When I mean by drawing K5 vertically or horizontally is would it be easier to see straight up and down or going across from left to right.

Here I have drawn it in two different ways. https://docs.google.com/document/d/1JaUjGU2cnnnpabDzyT_GQRsq7Uyy_qTRDrsPwrOL9D4/edit?usp=drive_web

One is the 'pentagon' way and the pther is the 'horizontal' way. Tell me if you have further doubts.

As a scientist, it is important to be precise and accurate in your work. In this case, the size of the squares does not matter as long as they represent the vertices. You can draw the graph either vertically or horizontally, whichever is easier for you to visualize and work with. The important thing is that the graph should have 5 vertices, denoted by K5.
