Our function is continuous, so by the intermediate value theorem there has to be some value in the range of the function where $f(x)=0$. This implies that at some angle of the scanline $x$, $\|a_x\| = \|b_x\|$. In polar coordinates we've uniquely defined a point in the plane that both intervals occupy. This contradicts the non-intersection of our intervals.
\end{proof}
This lemma indicates that it is sufficient to
determine the ordering of compare intervals
along a scan line at one
point. angle of the scanline.
