Let K be a convex cone in the n-dimensional real vector space Rn, and consider the sets A\equal{}K \cup (\minus{}K) and B\equal{}(\mathbb{R}^n \setminus A) \cup \{ 0 \} (0 is the origin). Show that one can find two subspaces in Rn such that together they span Rn, and one of them lies in A and the other lies in B.
