Here is a link to the question:
Verify that T is an isometry of H...? - Yahoo! Answers
I have posted a link there to this topic so the OP can find my response.
Let H = {(x,y) ∈ ℝ^2 : y > 0}, with the usual Euclidean distance. Let T: H→H be the translation map: T(x,y) = (x, y+1) for all (x,y) ∈ H. Verify that T is an isometry of H.
Thanks!

\to H$ is well defined. Now, for all $(x,y)$ and $(x',y')$ points of $H$: $$\begin{aligned}d[T(x,y),T(x',y')]&=d[(x,y+1),(x',y'+1)]\\&=\sqrt{(x'-x)^2+(y'+1-x'-1)^2}\\&=\sqrt{(x'-x)^2+(y'-x')^2}\\&=d[(x,y),(x',y')]\end{aligned}$$ That is, $T$ is an isometry.
