Please give me a complete proof that a Banach space s may not be a Hilbert space. Solve example which is a Banach space but not Hilbert space

Towards the second part of your question. Consider the set of all continuous functions on a compact interval $[a,b]$ for $a < b$ and $a,b \in \mathbb{R}$, i.e. $f: [a,b] \to \mathbb{R}$. And the uniform norm, $\lVert \cdot\rVert_\infty$. Then this set together with this norm, i.e. $(C([a,b]),\lVert \cdot\rVert_\infty)$, is a Banach space but not a Hilbert space as the uniform norm is not induced by a scalar product.

Another example is the $l^p$ space for $p \neq 2$. This follows easily from the parallelogram law.
