In taxicab geometry, the lengths of the red, blue, green, and yellow paths all equal 12, the taxicab distance between the opposite corners, and all four paths are shortest paths. Instead, in Euclidean geometry, the red, blue, and yellow paths still have length 12 but the green path is the unique shortest path, with length equal to the Euclidean ...
In mathematics, a metric space is a set together with a notion of distance between its elements, usually called points. The distance is measured by a function called a metric or distance function. [1] Metric spaces are the most general setting for studying many of the concepts of mathematical analysis and geometry.
The Euclidean distance gives Euclidean space the structure of a topological space, the Euclidean topology, with the open balls (subsets of points at less than a given distance from a given point) as its neighborhoods.

In Taxicab Geometry, a type of non-Euclidean geometry where distance is measured using the Manhattan metric (only horizontal and vertical moves are allowed, like a grid), the concept of angle sum in a triangle becomes ambiguous. In some interpretations, the sum of angles in a taxicab triangle can still be 180°, but the way angles are measured ...
A circle in taxicab geometry consists of those points that are a fixed Manhattan distance from the center. These circles are squares whose sides make a 45° angle with the coordinate axes.--Abdull 13:37, 21 February 2006 (UTC) In fact, the first statement is wrong: it should read Hilbert's axioms not Euclid's axioms.
