In addition, to these approximation theorems, we established also introduced lacunary statistically convergent of degree β and establish a corresponding Korovkin type theorem namely the following: If the sequence of positive linear operators Pn: CM [a, b]→ B[a, b] satisfies the conditions: * ||Pn(1, x)-1||β→0(Sβ1θ ) as r→ ∞, * ||Pn(t, x)-x||B→0(Sβ2θ ) as r→ ∞ and * ||Pn(t2, x)-x2||B→0(Sβ3θ ) as r→ ∞, then for any function f ∈ CM [a, b], we have ||Pn (f, x)- (x)||B→0(Sβθ ) as r→ ∞ and β = min{β1, β2, β3}.
