2) Let A, B and C be three points on a hyperbolic line such that A* B*C. Let D represent hyperbolic distance. Prove that D(A, C) = D(A, B) + D(B, C). [You may take all of the terms to be positive so that you can safely ignore the absolute values. Recall that the sum of two logarithms is the logarithm of the product.]
