square root limit proof

R is the real nmbers

so let A be in R
let f: A -> R be such that f(x)>0 for all x in A
c is in A

Does anyone know the proof to or even get me started on this proof shown below

[It's hard to write roots on the computer, so I will use the 1/2-th power instead.] SO i want to prove the following

lim x ->c [f(x)^(1/2)] = [lim x->c f(x)]^(1/2),
PROVIDED f(x) > 0

Use the continuity of the square root and the definition of limit.
 
In other words, this function, f, has very little to do with the question. The definition of "h(x) is continuous at x=a" is lim(x->a) f(x)= f(a). In this case, what is a?
