i) Does Lebesgue lemma hold true in the plane? Justify your answer! ii) Let (X, d1) be a compact metric space and (Y, d2) a metric space. Suppose that f : X → Y is continuous. Use Lebesgue lemma to show that for every > 0 there exists δ > 0 such that if d1(x, y) < δ then d2(f(x), f(y)) < , that is, f is uniformly continuous.
