Preservation of compactness under equivalent metrics












0












$begingroup$


Let $X$ be a compact metric space under a certain metric $d_1$.



Let $d_2$ be a metric equivalent to $d_1$. Is it true that $(X,d_2)$ is a compact metric space?



If so how do I go about proving it?

    Compactness is a property of the topology. Equivalent metrics generate the same topology.

Yes, it is true, since asserting that the metrics are equivalent means that the topologies are the same.
