How do I evaluate the limit,
$$lim_{n to infty} left(1-frac1{2^2}right)left(1-frac1{3^2}right)left(1-frac1{4^2}right)...left(1-frac1{n^2}right)$$
I tried to break the $n^{text{th}}$ term into $$frac{(n+1)(n-1)}{n.n}$$ and then tried to do something but couldn't get anywhere. Please help as to how to solve such questions in general. Thanks.

Can you see that the numerator in each term will cancel with the denominators of the terms on either side. So there ought to be some mass cancellation - write the first few terms in the form you have discovered o see what is going on.

We have
$$ logleft(prod_{n =2}^N 1 - frac{1}{n^2} right) = sum_{n = 2}^N log(n-1) + log(n+1) - 2 log(n) = log(1) - log(2) - log(N) + log(N+1).$$
So we have that
$$prod_{n = 1}^N 1 - frac{1}{n^2} = frac{N+1}{2N} to frac{1}{2}$$
