Lower Bound is Upper Bound for Inverse Ordering

Definition
Let $\struct {S, \preceq}$ be an ordered set.

Let $T \subseteq S$.

Let $m$ be a lower bound for $\struct {T, \preceq}$.

Let $\succeq$ be the dual ordering of $\preceq$.

Then $m$ is an upper bound for $\struct {T, \succeq}$.

Proof
Let $m$ be a lower bound for $\struct {T, \preceq}$.

That is:


 * $\forall a \in T: m \preceq a$

By definition of dual ordering, it follows that:


 * $\forall a \in T: a \succeq m$

That is, $M$ is an upper bound for $\struct {T, \succeq}$.
