Lebesgue measure on the real line is the restriction of Lebesgue outer measure to the Borel sets. That it is a measure is a separate theorem, which assumes the axiom of dependent choice.
In the setting of Routine Facts Used Without Citation: Arithmetic, Maps, Predicativity and Indices, let be the power set of , let be as in The Extended Real Line, Its Order, and [0,∞] (ii), and let be the Lebesgue outer measure on . Let be the Borel -algebra of . It is a -algebra on by Closure Properties of σ-Algebras, Intersections and Traces of σ-Algebras, and the Generated σ-Algebra (iii), hence a subset of by σ-Algebra and Measurable Space (i).
Lebesgue measure on is the restriction
of to . By Domains and Restrictions of Maps (ii) and Domains and Restrictions of Maps (iii), is a map with for every .
