let X, Y be TopSpace; :: thesis: for V being Subset of X

take W = W; :: thesis: ( e = [:V,W:] & V is open & W is open )
thus ( e = [:V,W:] & V is open & W is open ) by A1, A3, TARSKI:def 1; :: thesis: verum

[:V,W:] = union {[:V,W:]} by ZFMISC_1:25;
hence [:V,W:] is open by A2, Th45; :: thesis: verum
