Alternating implies flexible

From Groupprops

This article gives the statement and possibly, proof, of an implication relation between two non-associative ring properties. That is, it states that every non-associative ring satisfying the first non-associative ring property (i.e., alternating ring) must also satisfy the second non-associative ring property (i.e., flexible ring)

Statement

Suppose R is a non-associative ring (i.e., a not necessarily associative ring). Then, if R is an alternative ring (i.e., the square of any element is zero) then R is a flexible ring.
