Lebesgue Number Lemma for a Sequentially Compact Subset of a Metric Space

Statement

Let (X,d)(X,d) be a metric space, and let Td\mathcal{T}_d be the collection of subsets of XX that are open in (X,d)(X,d), which is a topology on XX by Metric Open Sets Form a Topology. Let K⊆XK\subseteq X be sequentially compact in (X,d)(X,d), let II be a set, and let (Ui)i∈I(U_i)_{i\in I} be an open cover of KK in (X,Td)(X,\mathcal{T}_d).

Then there exists a real number δ>0\delta>0 such that for every x∈Kx\in K there exists i∈Ii\in I with

Bd(x,δ)⊆Ui,B_d(x,\delta)\subseteq U_i,

where Bd(x,δ)B_d(x,\delta) is the open ball in XX with center xx and radius δ\delta.
