Prove that the height of the balanced BST is bounded by log(n).
Let us take the height of the binary tree is h.
Now, for the root level the number of nodes present is only the root node. So roots present is 1. (Level 0)
On the very next level down the roots the number of nodes present in a complete balanced BST is 2. (level 1)
Again for the next level no of nodes has to be 4. (level 2)

And the height being h, the number of nodes in the hth level = 2h
So now the total number of nodes present = 1+2+4+......+2h
=20+21+22+....+2h
=2(h+1) - 1
So now if we consider that there are n nodes in the balanced binary tree, then,
n = 2(h+1) - 1
or, n+1 = 2(h+1)
or, (n+1)/2 = 2h
or, h = log{(n+1)/2}
so, here we see that the height h is bounded by O(log(n)).
Use induction, Prove that the height of the balanced BST is bounded by log(n).
How does the height of the above BST compare with an optimal or balanced BST? What is the height of a balanced BST for that sequence of nodes? What is the worst-case height of an unbalanced BST and when does that worst-case occur? (4 + 2 + 4 = 10 points) 4, 29, 37, 34, 100, 8, 9, 65, 64, 63, 291, 23, 67, 12, 81, 29
For a simple BST (without any balancing) storing n keys and of height h, the running time of the search operation (for a worst-case instance) is o (log h) 0 (h) o O(n) o (log n)
Use the Principle of Mathematical Induction to prove that (2i+3) = n(n + 4) for all n > 1.
Show that the tree height of a height-balanced binary search tree with n nodes is O(log n). (Hint: Let T(h) denote the fewest number of nodes that a height-balanced binary search tree of height h can have. Express T(h) in terms of T(h-1) and T(h-2). Then, find a lower bound of T(h) in terms of T(h-2). Finally, express the lower bound of T(h) in terms of h.)
