Let S be a set of N points in the plane and let DT(S) be the graph of the Delaunay triangulation of S. For all points a and b of S, let d(a,b) be the Euclidean distance from a to b and let DT(a,b) be the length of the shortest path in DT(S) from a to b. We show that there is a constant c \((\leq ((1+\sqrt{5})/2)\pi \approx 5.08)\) independent of S and N such that \(\frac{DT(a,b)}{d(a,b)}<c.\)
