Uniqueness of the Matrix Inverse

A right inverse and a left inverse of the same square matrix are equal; in particular a square matrix has at most one inverse.

Statement

In the setting of Metric Spaces: Balls, the Metric Topology, and the Real and Complex Numbers as Metric Spaces, let n∈Nn\in\mathbb{N} and A,B,C∈Mn(R)A,B,C\in\mathcal{M}_{n}(\mathbb{R}), square real matrices, with the matrix product and the identity matrix InI_{n}.

If AB=InAB=I_{n} and CA=InCA=I_{n}, then B=CB=C.
