(three parts): Thinking of R2 as the plane, consider the following three functions (R2)2- R: . de((a, b), (с, d))-V (a-c)2 + (b-d)2. The first is the usual distance formula (which we will take for granted to be a metric), the second is the "grid" distance (imagine you can only move horizontally or vertically). and the third is just comparing the distances on the line of the r-coordinates and of the y-coordinates and taking the maximum 1. Show that dsum...
