9.13 Let t be a nonempty binary tree. Use the Strong Form of the Principle of Mathematical Induction to prove each of the following parts of the Binary Tree Theorem:
a.
n(t ) + 1
2.0 ≤ 2height(t )
b. If t is a two-tree, then leaves(t ) = n(t ) + 1 / 2.0
c. If t is a full tree, then
n(t ) + 1 / 2.0 = 2height(t )
Hint: The outline of the proof is the same as in Example A2.5 of Appendix 2.
