Abstract
Let \(H\) be an inner product space, \(X\) a complete subspace of \(H\), and \(Y\) a closed subspace of \(X\). The main result of this Note is the following converse of the Reduction Principle: if \(x_{0}\in X,\ h\in H\backslash X\) and \(y_{0}\in Y\) is the element of best approximation of both \(x_{0}\) and \(h\), \((x_{0}-h,x_{0}-y_{0})=0\) and \(codim_{X}Y=1\), then \(x_{0}\) is the element of best approximation of \(h\) in \(X\).
