Suppose you have two numbers, and , where . The expression for the Euclidean norm of these two numbers is shown below:
Euclidean norm =
Suppose we would like to approximate this using an even simpler expression, as shown below:
Approximate Euclidean norm =
What is the maximum percentage error that this approximation can introduce?
