ii
The identity map
id:(Pn​,d∞​)⟶(Pn​,d1​)
(1)
is a continuous bijection by d1​≤d∞​. Its domain is compact by part (i), and its codomain is a Hausdorff space because every metric space is Hausdorff. The compact-to-Hausdorff continuous bijection theorem therefore makes the identity a homeomorphism. Consequently
d1​ and d∞​ induce the same topology on Pn​​.
