### Problem 5: Limit Proof Problem

**Objective**: Demonstrate the following mathematical proof:

**Statement**: Prove that if \( a_n \to L \), then \( |a_n| \to |L| \).

**Instructions**: Make cases and use Theorem 5.3B for the proof. 

**Key Concepts**: 
- The notation \( a_n \to L \) indicates that the sequence \( a_n \) converges to the limit \( L \).
- Similarly, \( |a_n| \to |L| \) means that the sequence of absolute values \( |a_n| \) converges to the absolute value of the limit \( L \).

### Explanation

To successfully prove this statement, consider the different possible cases for the limit \( L \) and approach the proof accordingly. Applying Theorem 5.3B will aid in structuring the proof based on known mathematical properties and theorems.
