While sometimes under the radar screen, borderline personality disorder (BPD) is a condition more common than schizophrenia or bipolar disorder and is estimated to affect 2 percent of the population.rullâs study, âChromosome 9: linkage for borderline personality disorderâ was recently published in Psychiatic Genetics and âHeritability of borderline personality disorder features is similar across three countriesâ was published in Psychological Medicine.
Taxicab geometry is a form of geometry, where the distance between two points A and B is not the length of the line segment AB as in the Euclidean geometry, but the sum of the absolute differences of their coordinates.
In Lesson 1â3, you learned how to find the distance between two points on a number line. To find the distance between two points in a coordinate plane, you can use the Distance Formula. The Distance Formula is based on the Pythagorean Theorem, which you will study later in this book. When you use the
