Assume that R is a commutative ring with non-zero identity which is not an integral domain. An ideal I of R is called an annihilating ideal if there exists a non-zero element $a{\in}R$ such that Ia = 0. S. Visweswaran and H. D. Patel associated a graph with the set of all non-zero annihilating ideals of R, denoted by ${\Omega}(R)$, as the graph with the vertex-set $A(R)^*$, the set of all non-zero annihilating ideals of R, and two distinct vertices I and J are adjacent if I + J is an annihilating ideal. In this paper, we study the relations between the diameters of ${\Omega}(R)$ and ${\Omega}(R[x])$. Also, we study the relations between the diameters of ${\Omega}(R)$ and ${\Omega}(R[[x]])$, whenever R is a Noetherian ring. In addition, we investigate the relations between the diameters of this graph and the zero-divisor graph. Moreover, we study some combinatorial properties of ${\Omega}(R)$ such as domination number and independence number. Furthermore, we study the complement of this graph.
