Using the $ε − N$ definition of the limit, prove that
$displaystylelim limits_ntoinfty frac(n^2 + 1) (n^2 + 2) = 1$.
In other words, given $varepsilon> 0$, find explicitly a natural number $N$ which
satisfies the statement in the definition of the limit.

Let $varepsilon > 0$.
Define $$N = lfloor sqrtfrac1varepsilon-2rfloor +1$$
For all $n geq N$, you have then $$n geq sqrtfrac1varepsilon-2$$
so
$$n^2+2 geq frac1varepsilon$$
so $$frac1n^2+2 leq varepsilon$$
so
$$left| fracn^2+1n^2+2 - 1 right| leq varepsilon$$
By the definition of the limit, this shows that
$$fracn^2+1n^2+2 rightarrow 1 $$

$begingroup$
$$|a_n-1|=1over n^2+2$$therefore if $n>1over sqrtepsilon$ we obtain $$n^2+2>1over epsilon+2>1over epsilon$$and $$|a_n-1|<epsilon$$ hence the result.

First of all rewrite the expression:
$a_n := fracn^2+1n^2+2 = 1-frac1n^2+2$.
Choose $N in mathbbN$ and let $n geq N$. Then we have:
$ Big | a_n -1 Big | = frac1n^2+2 leq frac1n^2 leq frac1N^2$
Do you have an idea how to choose $N in mathbbN$ from this inequality?

Let $varepsilon > 0$.
Define $$N = lfloor sqrtfrac1varepsilon-2rfloor +1$$
For all $n geq N$, you have then $$n geq sqrtfrac1varepsilon-2$$
so
$$n^2+2 geq frac1varepsilon$$
so $$frac1n^2+2 leq varepsilon$$
so
$$left| fracn^2+1n^2+2 - 1 right| leq varepsilon$$
By the definition of the limit, this shows that
$$fracn^2+1n^2+2 rightarrow 1 $$
