Theorem ringdi

Description: Distributive law for the multiplication operation of a ring (left-distributivity). (Contributed by Steve Rodriguez, 9-Sep-2007)

Ref Expression
Hypotheses ringdi.b 𝐵 = ( Base ‘ 𝑅 )
ringdi.p + = ( +g𝑅 )
ringdi.t · = ( .r𝑅 )
Assertion ringdi ( ( 𝑅 ∈ Ring ∧ ( 𝑋𝐵𝑌𝐵𝑍𝐵 ) ) → ( 𝑋 · ( 𝑌 + 𝑍 ) ) = ( ( 𝑋 · 𝑌 ) + ( 𝑋 · 𝑍 ) ) )
