How to show that the image of a complete metric space under an isometry is closed?
$begingroup$
Let $f,,:,, (M,d) rightarrow (N,sigma)$ be an isometry, that is
$$
sigma(f(x),f(y))=d(x,y)
$$
for all $x,y in M$.
If $(M,d)$ is complete, show that $f(M)$ is closed in $(N,sigma)$.

Let $yin N$ be a limit point of $f(M)$. Then there's a sequence $(f(x_n))in f(M)$ converging to $y$. Then $(f(x_n))$ is Cauchy in $(N,sigma)$. Since $f$ is an isometry, $(x_n)$ is Cauchy in $(M,d)$. Since $(M,d)$ is complete, $(x_n)$ converges to $xin M$. Then $f(x)=lim_{ntoinfty}f(x_n)=y$. Thus $yin f(M)$. So $f(M)$ is closed.

Let $yin N$ be a limit point of $f(M)$. Then there's a sequence $(f(x_n))in f(M)$ converging to $y$. Then $(f(x_n))$ is Cauchy in $(N,sigma)$. Since $f$ is an isometry, $(x_n)$ is Cauchy in $(M,d)$. Since $(M,d)$ is complete, $(x_n)$ converges to $xin M$. Then $f(x)=lim_{ntoinfty}f(x_n)=y$. Thus $yin f(M)$. So $f(M)$ is closed.
