ON TRIGONOMETRIC FUNCTIONS AND NORM IN THE GENERALIZED TAXICAB METRIC
Abstract
In this paper, the plane with the generalized taxicab metric is
considered and the trigonometric functions and the norm are dened. Then,
the cosine and the sine functions are developed by using the reference angle
with respect to the generalized taxicab metric. It is shown that Schwarz's
inequality is valid under restricted case of d_Tg -metric. Finally, the area of
any triangle in the plane with the generalized taxicab metric is given as the
geometrical interpretation that contains the trigonometric functions and norm.
