(iii) (5 marks) de ne the geodesic distance on the unit sphere. {a + b|a a, b b} is again closed. (iv) (5 marks) show that the set {a + b|a a, b b} need not be closed if a and. B are assumed closed, but not necessarily bounded. Suppose that x1 and x2 are distinct components of x. Show that there is a splitting of x for which x1 and x2 lie on di erent sides.
