Theorem axlttrn

Description: Ordering on reals is transitive. Axiom 19 of 22 for real and complex numbers, derived from ZF set theory. This restates ax-pre-lttrn with ordering on the extended reals. New proofs should use lttr instead for naming consistency. (New usage is discouraged.) (Contributed by NM, 13-Oct-2005)
