(a)  Use Kruskal’s algorithm to find a minimum spanning tree. Your answer should include a complete list of the edges, indicating which edges you take for your tree and which you reject in the course of running the algorithm, as well as the total cost. (b)  Use Prim’s algorithm to find a minimum spanning tree. Show how the cost and parent lists change every iteration and report the final tree and its total cost. (c) Are they the same tree? If not, argue why they are not equal.
