Summary: In the paper ``Path graphs'', \textit{H.J. Broersma} and \textit{C. Hoede} [J. Graph Theory 13, No.\,4, 427--444 (1989; Zbl 0677.05068)] posed the problem whether there is a triple of mutually nonisomorphic connected graphs which have an isomorphic connected \(P_3\)-graph. In this paper, we show that there is no such triple, and thus completely solve this problem.
