real analysis - If f is absolutely continuous and g is continuous, prove f=g.



The full problem reads:



Prove that if f is absolutely continuous on [0,1] and g is continuous on [0,1] such that f=g a.e., then f is differentiable on [0,1] and f=g.




My analysis skills are very rusty and I'm having a hard time seeing how to prove this. Thanks in advance for any advice!


Answer



By Lebesgue's fundamental theorem of calculus,
f(x)=f(0)+x0f.


By hypothesis,
f(x)=f(0)+x0g.

By the standard fundamental theorem of calculus, f(x)=g(x) for all x.
