Theorem: An increasing sequence that is bounded converges to a limit. We proved this theorem in class. Here is the proof. Proof: Let (a n) be such a sequence. By assumption, (a n) is non-empty and bounded above. By the least-upper-bound property of the real numbers, s = sup n(a ) exists. Now, for every > 0, there exists a natural number N such
