let C be Simple_closed_curve; ( |[(- 1),0]|,|[1,0]| realize-max-dist-in C implies LSeg (|[(- 1),(- 3)]|,|[0,(- 3)]|) misses C )
assume
|[(- 1),0]|,|[1,0]| realize-max-dist-in C
; LSeg (|[(- 1),(- 3)]|,|[0,(- 3)]|) misses C
then A1:
C /\ (rectangle ((- 1),1,(- 3),3)) = {|[(- 1),0]|,|[1,0]|}
by Th74;
assume
LSeg (|[(- 1),(- 3)]|,|[0,(- 3)]|) meets C
; contradiction
then consider q being object such that
A2:
q in LSeg (|[(- 1),(- 3)]|,|[0,(- 3)]|)
and
A3:
q in C
by XBOOLE_0:3;
reconsider q = q as Point of (TOP-REAL 2) by A3;
q in (rectangle ((- 1),1,(- 3),3)) /\ C
by A2, A3, Lm74, XBOOLE_0:def 4;
then
( q = |[(- 1),0]| or q = |[1,0]| )
by A1, TARSKI:def 2;
hence
contradiction
