and you showed how to prove that if An->0 then An^2->0

if case 2 is true:
it will pick An and by definition An goes to 0

if case3:
then no matter what it will pick because its the same.
and all the members are equaled to An
so they all go to 0.
so it lookes pretty much complete
what do i miss??
If my proof is sufficient enough for you then I suppose you just need to rephrase it in your own words.
