Given a square matrix A that has full row rank we know that the matrix is invertible. So there is a matrix B such that
AB=1
writing this in component notation,
AijBjk=δik
Now, we tend to write A−1 instead of B but let's leave it like that for now.
My question is how can we show that BA=1? We mechanically jump to the conclusion that if the inverse exists, AA−1=A−1A=1 but how to show that? Equivalently why is the left inverse equal to the right inverse? It seems intuitively obvious!
Thanks a bunch, I appreciate.
