Lemma 33.44.3. Let $k$ be a field. Let $X$ be a proper scheme of dimension $\leq 1$ over $k$. Let $0 \to \mathcal{E}_1 \to \mathcal{E}_2 \to \mathcal{E}_3 \to 0$ be a short exact sequence of locally free $\mathcal{O}_ X$-modules each of finite constant rank. Then
\[ \deg (\mathcal{E}_2) = \deg (\mathcal{E}_1) + \deg (\mathcal{E}_3) \]
Proof. Follows immediately from additivity of Euler characteristics (Lemma 33.33.2) and additivity of ranks. $\square$
