Question
Show
(1) that the reverse triangle inequality
Ilal-l이 < la-비
holds for all real numbers.
(HINT: Write a as a – b+ b. Then apply the triangle inequality.)
(2) the mapping diagram picture of the reverse triangle inequality for the case
where a >0 and b<0.
(HINT: See video 0 Prelim Part 0, 8: 08 → 13 : 45, for mapping diagrams.
Do it for a specific numbers for a and b and then overwrite the specific numbers in
the mapping diagram by a and b.)
(3) What does the mapping diagram show about the absolute value operation?
(HINT: Interpret |r - y| as the distance between r and y.)
