Lie Groups and Lie Algebras, chapter I, § 5. Solvable Lie algebras

Let g be a Lie algebra. Then g is solvable if and only if Dg\mathscr{D}g is orthogonal to g with respect to the Killing form.

This is an immediate consequence of Proposition 5 (b).

Bourbaki puts the proof directly after the statement, so what is above is the statement and its proof together.
