let p, q, r, s be ExtReal; :: thesis: ( r <= s & p < q implies [.r,q.[ \ ].p,s.[ = [.r,p.] \/ [.s,q.[ )
assume that
A1: r <= s and
A2: p < q ; :: thesis: [.r,q.[ \ ].p,s.[ = [.r,p.] \/ [.s,q.[
let x be ExtReal; :: according to MEMBERED:def 14 :: thesis: ( ( not x in [.r,q.[ \ ].p,s.[ or x in [.r,p.] \/ [.s,q.[ ) & ( not x in [.r,p.] \/ [.s,q.[ or x in [.r,q.[ \ ].p,s.[ ) )
thus ( x in [.r,q.[ \ ].p,s.[ implies x in [.r,p.] \/ [.s,q.[ ) :: thesis: ( not x in [.r,p.] \/ [.s,q.[ or x in [.r,q.[ \ ].p,s.[ )

proof

assume A3: x in [.r,q.[ \ ].p,s.[ ; :: thesis: x in [.r,p.] \/ [.s,q.[
then A4: not x in ].p,s.[ by XBOOLE_0:def 5;
A5: r <= x by A3, Th3;
A6: x < q by A3, Th3;
( not p < x or not x < s ) by A4, Th4;
then ( x in [.r,p.] or x in [.s,q.[ ) by A5, A6, Th1, Th3;
hence x in [.r,p.] \/ [.s,q.[ by XBOOLE_0:def 3; :: thesis: verum

end;

assume x in [.r,p.] \/ [.s,q.[ ; :: thesis: x in [.r,q.[ \ ].p,s.[
then ( x in [.r,p.] or x in [.s,q.[ ) by XBOOLE_0:def 3;
then A7: ( ( r <= x & x <= p ) or ( s <= x & x < q ) ) by Th1, Th3;
then A8: r <= x by A1, XXREAL_0:2;
x < q by A2, A7, XXREAL_0:2;
then A9: x in [.r,q.[ by A8, Th3;
not x in ].p,s.[ by A7, Th4;
hence x in [.r,q.[ \ ].p,s.[ by A9, XBOOLE_0:def 5; :: thesis: verum
