Default Theorem Proof (SD)

Hello, I just had a little question I needed clarification on.

I'm trying to prove a theorem, but I am stuck having to prove that " A " and " ~~A " are equivalent. Am I allowed to use " ~~~A " against " A " as a direct contradiction in my negation elimination ( ~E )? Or, is there a way (using only SD) to somehow convert " ~~A " into " A "?

Thanks!
