Is this statement true? If $A$ is an $ntimes n$ matrix and $A^m=I_n$ for some $min BbbN$, then $A$ is invertible.



My trial



Let $nin BbbN$ be fixed. Then, $$[det(A)]^m=det(A^m)=I_n=1.$$
Hence, $$det(A)=1neq 0.$$
Thus, $A$ is invertible since $det(A)neq 0.$. I'm I right or is there a counter-example?

The right conclusion is $det(A) ne 0$, hence it is invertible.



Notice that we can't conclude that $det(A)=1$. After all, it can take value $-1$.
