The Attempt at a Solution
I thought simply showing that arbitrary intervals work is enough. but my teacher says that my solution doesn't make sense. any help as to my misconception would make sense.
Let O be any open interval defined as (√a,√b) such that x is in the interval and x is the limit point of Pn. then √a < x < √b. then a < x^2 < b. Then for any open interval O1, x^2 is contained. Thus lim Pn^2 is X^2
