Proceed as follows to prove...

Norms and convergence: (a) Prove the l2 metric defined in class is a valid norm on R2 (b) Prove that in R2, any open ball in 12 ("Euclidean metric") can be enclosed in an open ball in the loo norm ("sup" norm).

(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...
