the question says: prove that if a is an element of a group G, then the order of a = order of its inverse. my attempt: Let order of a=n , so aⁿ=e , and so (a)ⁿ(a^-1)ⁿ=e=(a^-1)ⁿ , so order of a divides order of a^-1 let order of a^-1 =m. so (a^-1)^m=e if and only if a^m =e , so order of a^-1 divides order of a so they are equal. Q.E.D is the proof correct?
