Could someone please indicate me some reference that contains the proof of the following theorem? Below $\mathcal{H}^n$ denotes the $n$-dimensional Hausdorff outer measure in $\mathbb{R}^n$. **Theorem:** Let $M\subset \mathbb{R}^N$ be a $k$-dimensional manifold of class $C^1$, $1\leq k\leq N$. 1. Let $\varphi$ be a local chart, that is, $\varphi:A\to M$ is a function of class $C^1$ for some open set $A \subset \mathbb{R}^k$ such that $\nabla \varphi $ has maximum rank $k$ in $A$. Define $g_{ij}:=\frac{\partial \varphi }{\partial y_i}\!\cdot \!\frac{\partial \varphi }{\partial y_j}$, where $\cdot$ is the inner product in $\mathbb{R}^N$. Then $\varphi (A)$ has Hausdorff dimension $k$ and $$\mathcal{H}^k(\varphi(A))=\int_A \sqrt{\det g_{ij}(y)}dy$$ 2. $M$ has Hausdorff dimension $k$ and that $\mathcal{H}^k(M)$ is the standard surface measure of $M$. ---------- I found this theorem in the file ["Measure and Integration"][1] (pg 9). I searched for some reference that contains the proof of the above theorem but couldn't find it. I am posting this request here since a similar question on [Mathematics Stack Exchange][2] didn't receive an answer!
