Prime iff Coprime to all Smaller Positive Integers

Theorem
Let $p$ be a prime number

Then:
 * $\forall x \in \Z, 0 < x < p: x \perp p$

That is, $p$ is relatively prime to all smaller (strictly) positive integers.

Proof
From Prime Not Divisor then Coprime, if $p$ does not divide an integer $x$, it is relatively prime to $x$.

From Integer Absolute Value not less than Divisors: Corollary, $p$ does not divide an integer smaller than $p$.

It follows that $p$ is relatively prime to all smaller (strictly) positive integers.

The special case when $x = 0$ is excluded as from Integers Coprime to Zero, $p$ is not relatively prime to $0$.
