Let DIST (u, v) denote the distance between vertex u and v. It is well known that distances in graphs satisfy the triangle inequality. That is, for any three vertices u, v, w, DIST (u, v) ≤ DIST (u, w) + DIST (w, v). Let D∗ denote the distance between the two farthest nodes in G. Show that for any vertex s    D∗  ≤  2 max DIST (s, v).
