Statement

Let R\mathbb{R} be the set of real numbers, let ∣⋅∣|\cdot| be the absolute value on R\mathbb{R}, let dRd_{\mathbb{R}} be the metric of The Absolute Value Metric on the Real Line, and let dEd_{E} be the Euclidean distance on Rn\mathbb{R}^{n} in the case n=1n=1, with R1\mathbb{R}^{1} identified with R\mathbb{R}.

Then dE(s,t)=dR(s,t)d_{E}(s,t)=d_{\mathbb{R}}(s,t) for all s,t∈Rs,t\in\mathbb{R}. In particular dEd_{E} and dRd_{\mathbb{R}} are the same function, so a subset of R\mathbb{R} is open with respect to one exactly when it is open with respect to the other, the two metrics determine the same topology by Metric Open Sets Form a Topology, and a subset of R\mathbb{R} is compact with respect to one exactly when it is compact with respect to the other.
