create a worksheet on networks (maths topic)

This learning resource introduces the fundamental concepts of networks, focusing on terminology and notation essential for solving network-related problems. Key vocabulary includes vertices, edges, paths, and the distinction between weighted and unweighted graphs. The document includes practical exercises for identifying network components and applying concepts such as Dijkstra's shortest path algorithm and Minimum Spanning Trees (MSTs) in real-world scenarios. Students will design network diagrams, analyze hiking trail networks, explore delivery routes, and optimize connections in tech setups. The hands-on practice encourages critical thinking as learners apply network theories to problem-solving in various contexts.
