In a group (G,*) every element has a unique inverse.
Proof: if x€G and y1 and y2 are both inverse of x.
Then y1= y1×e (bcoz e is the identity)
= y1×(x×y2) bcoz y2 is the inverse of x.
= (y1×x)×y2 by associative law
= e×y2 bcoz y1 is the inverse of x.
= y2 bcoz e is the identity
So y1=y2 hence the proof.
