let M1, M2 be Matrix of n,K; :: thesis: ( M1 is Nilpotent & M2 is Nilpotent & M1 commutes_with M2 & M1 * M2 = 0. (K,n) implies M1 + M2 is Nilpotent )

A3: M1 commutes_with M2 and

A6: ( M1 * M1 = 0. (K,n) & M2 * M2 = 0. (K,n) ) by A2;
(M1 + M2) * (M1 + M2) = (((M1 * M1) + (0. (K,n))) + (0. (K,n))) + (M2 * M2) by A3, A4, MATRIX_6:35
.= ((M1 * M1) + (0. (K,n))) + (M2 * M2) by A5, MATRIX_3:4
