A kite is a graph on an even number of vertices, say 2n, in which n of the vertices form a clique and the remaining n vertices are connected in a “tail” that consists of a path joined to one of the vertices of the clique. Given a graph and a goal g, the KITE problem asks for a subgraph which is a kite and which contains 2g nodes. Prove that KITE is NP-complete.
