A CONCEPT OF PARABOLA IN TAXICAB GEOMETRY BASED ON PERPENDICULAR BISECTOR AS ITS DIRECTRIX

Taxicab Geometry is a non-Euclidean geometry in which distance is defined differently, i.e. (( ) ( )) | | | | for any two points ( ) and ( ). In Euclidean geometry, lines can also be defined as perpendicular bisectors. Since perpendicular bisectors can be defined solely based on distance, we use...
