σ (x,y)= ρ(x,y)
1+ ρ(x,y)

a a
(18) If f is continuous on [a, b] show that f Є R (g; a, b).
Section-C (2 X 20 = 40 marks).
Answer any TWO questions. Each question carries 20 marks
(19) (a) Show that a sequence of points in any metric space cannot converge to two distinct limits.
(6 marks)
(b) Give an example of a normed vector space, which is not an inner product space. (8 marks)
(c) State and prove Cauchy –Schwartz inequality. (6 marks)
(20) (a) Let (X, ρ) and (Y, σ) be the metric spaces and let f:X → Y. Prove that f is continuous on X if and
only if f-1 (G) is open in X whenever G is open in Y. (10 marks)

show that f is also continuous at c . (10 marks)
