Can you use proof by contradiction in the midst of induction

[QUOTE="Battlemage!, post: 5417505, member: 135434"] Thanks for the responses. I was a little iffy on that probably because induction isn't my strong suit. Also I am glad to know I can state exactly what I'm doing without losing the proper language of a proof (something I am definitely still learning). Incidentally I just realized my "test proof" is a proof that the dot product of a vector [B]u [/B]and itself is always greater than or equal to zero. Because obviously each component times itself and then summed up over all all the indices would look exactly like the above. Thanks again. Any more info is always appreciated. [/QUOTE]
