      [For the entire collection see Zbl 0753.00021.] Let \(S\) be a finite set of points in the plane. The Delaunay triangulation is the graph corresponding to the Voronoi diagram of \(S\). It is shown that for any two points of \(S\) the ratio between the length of the shortest path in the Delaunay triangulation and their Euclidean distance is less than 2.42.
