  • The distances between these three sets do not satisfy the triangle inequality:<math display="block">d(A,B)>d(A,C)+d(C,B)</math>
  • Distance along a path compared with displacement. The Euclidean distance is the length of the displacement vector.
  • Airline routes between [[Los Angeles]] and [[Tokyo]] approximately follow a direct [[great circle]] route (top), but use the [[jet stream]] (bottom) when heading eastwards. The shortest route appears as a curve rather than a straight line because the [[map projection]] does not scale all distances equally compared to the real spherical surface of the Earth.

Arbitrariness

Arbitrariness is the quality of being "determined by chance, whim, or impulse, and not by necessity, reason, or principle". It is also used to refer to a choice made without any specific criterion or restraint.

Arbitrary decisions are not necessarily the same as random decisions. For example, during the 1973 oil crisis, Americans were allowed to purchase gasoline only on odd-numbered days if their license plate was odd, and on even-numbered days if their license plate was even. The system was well-defined and not random in its restrictions; however, since license plate numbers are completely unrelated to a person's fitness to purchase gasoline, it was still an arbitrary division of people. Similarly, schoolchildren are often organized by their surname in alphabetical order, a non-random yet an arbitrary method—at least in cases where surnames are irrelevant.
