On locally compact Hausdorff spaces<br />

Proof.<br />

Since X is locally compact we can, for each k ∈ K, find an open<br />

set Wk such that k ∈ Wk and Wk is compact.<br />

Since {Wk : k ∈ K} is an open cover of K, and K is compact,<br />

there is a finite collection k1,k2,...,kN such that<br />

K ⊆ Wk1 ∪ Wk2 ∪ · · · ∪ WkN . Set W = Wk1 ∪ Wk2 ∪ · · · ∪ WkN and<br />

note that W ⊆ Wk1 ∪ Wk2 ∪ · · · ∪ WkN .<br />
