Answer all the questions.
01.(a)(i) Let X be a non–empty set, and let d be a real function of ordered pairs of
elements of X which satisfies the following two conditions:
d(x,y) = 0  x = y, and d(x,y)  d(x,z) + d(y,z)
Show that d is a metric on X.
(OR)

(b)(i) State and prove the Tietze Extension Theorem.
(OR)
(ii) If X is a second countable normal space, show that there exists a
homeomorphism f of X onto a subspace of R∞, and X is therefore
