To proof this statement I will show that:

$\quad dim(\mathcal{V}) \leq dim(\mathcal{W})$|$\quad dim(\mathcal{W}) \leq dim(\mathcal{V})$

(1)   $dim(\mathcal{V}) \leq dim(\mathcal{W})$
(2)   $dim(\mathcal{W}) \leq dim(\mathcal{V})$

From this follows that dim(\mathcal{V}) = dim(\mathcal{W})$.

Proof of (1):
